“…Lyons and Yilmazer (2005) emphasized in their study that poor health of individuals will increase the financial hardship faced by the individuals, but it does not necessarily imply that it will lead to a decline in health status. Another study conducted by Chen et al (2017) argued that students are faced with high levels of debt burden during their post-secondary education. This debt burden worsens when children cannot maintain a healthy lifestyle.…”

With the rising cost of healthcare, most households are resorting to out-of-pocket financing or borrowing to finance the high cost of health care. Intuitively, healthcare's rising cost is a global concern and is subject to a thorough economic debate. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 3 focuses on health care financing for all ages to promote everyone's healthy lifestyle. There are two objectives of this study, and these are as follows: (1) Examine the relationship between borrowing for health or medical purposes and credit card use and ownership, and (2) Explore the significant gender differences concerning borrowing for health or medical purposes. Data for this study was collected from the Global Findex Database and analyzed using the Eviews8 and Microsoft Excel software. The findings from this study confirmed that borrowing for health or medical purposes, primary education, or less (% age 15+) has a statistically significant impact on credit card ownership and usage in high-income countries. There was no relationship of this nature evident in the case of low-income countries. There are significant differences between borrowing for health or medical reasons between males and females in Austria and Lithuania. Both Austria and Lithuania are high-income countries, but in the case of low-income countries, significant gender differences were found for Madagascar and Nepal. This study is timely and has contributed immensely to the existing literature.

“…Furthermore, research has indicated that emerging adults may be particularly vulnerable to mental health issues due to the unique challenges they face during this transformative stage (Stallman et al, 2010). The demands of increased responsibilities, adapting to new roles, and navigating life-altering circumstances may contribute to unhealthy lifestyles and a range of emotional lifestyles among emerging adults (Chen et al, 2017;Sofija, 2020), indicating a potential link between unhealthy lifestyle habits and emotional functioning (Keyes, 2005). Therefore, adopting healthy lifestyle practices may play a crucial role in promoting mental well-being and overall health among young adults.…”

Background: Rising depression rates among young adults pose significant public health concerns. Engaging in physical activity (PA) can exert antidepressant effects. And there is a prevalent association between depression and unhealthy dietary habits. Aims:We explored the intricate relationships between physical activity (PA), energy intake, depression, and potential sex disparities.Methods: Using National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data from March 2017 to the pre-pandemic period in 2020. Our sample encompassed 750 young adults aged 18-24, including 381 men.Results: Significant interaction effects between sex and depression emerged, notably in vigorous recreation activity (F(1, 749) = 24.089, p < 0.001). Both men and women with depression spent significantly less time in such activities than non-depressed individuals (p < 0.001). Significant interaction effects between sex and depression emerged, notably in protein intake (F(1, 749) = 8.830, p < 0.001). Both men and women with depression exhibited significantly lower protein intake than non-depressed individuals (p < 0.01). Conclusions:Our investigation of US young adults highlighted marked disparities in depression prevalence, low vigorous recreational activity, and low protein intake, contingent upon the individual's sex. These findings underscore the significance of designing targeted physical activity and nutrition interventions based on specific sex considerations.
