The Mayo Clinic wrote a short article and produced a video emphasizing the benefits to health from living in the midst of nature. One study cited in the article indicates living by a “green space” can improve health span and life span. For example, for women, it can improve their mental health too.
Not associated with the research but Dr. Vandana Bhide, a Mayo Clinic internal medicine specialist, in terms of the research explained, “This was a large survey of nurses who were asked about where they live and how much green space nearby… Results suggest people who live in the greenest areas actually had a lower death rate.”
The argument by the research publication’s authors is that the men would have a similar reaction to the women. Jeff Olsen talks more in the video in the article here.
