I think thats where people misunderstand. Exercise has been used in major depressive disorder. Exercise has been shown (not always) to be effective in major depressive disorder. Then again, no antidepressant drug has been show to be always effective in major depressive disorder.

So you've got drugs (partially effective) and exercise (partially effective), I don't see how it is fair to say that exercise should be taken out of the equation.

There are plenty of reasons that it might be effective.

Enhanced BDNF expression, enhanced NGF expression, enhanced NT-3 expression, enhanced GDNF expression, enhaced GAP-43 epression, ehnaced IGF-1 release, ehanced 5-ht1a recetor expression, activation of the endocannabanoid system, ehnaced anandamide activity, hpa axis downregulation, increased release of phenyethylamine PEA, neurotransmitter system downregulation, 5-ht1b autorecetor downregulation, enhanced dentage gyrus neurogenesis, the list goes on.

I think it is a mistake to take it out of the equation.
