Core Tip |
With the fast outbreak of coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19), most nations have decided on self-isolation and social distancing policies for their citizens and residents aiming to stay away from the outbreak of this pandemic among populations and regularly to reduce hospital capacity. This review aimed at evaluating the effect of physical activity on mental well-being during the COVID-19 pandemic. It was concluded that the COVID-19 pandemic may lead to cardiovascular and neurological disorders that associated with highly inflammatory effects of viral infection affecting the brain tissues leading to damage of the nervous system and resulting in cognition dysfunction, insulin sensitivity reduction, and behavioral impairments. Regular physical activities may reduce inflammatory responses, improve angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 responses, and improve mental well-being during self-isolation and social distancing policies related to the COVID-19 pandemic. |
