This is well said, and I agree with it completely.  Gambling for someone like myself (and of course many others) is definitely a health benefit.  It sounds silly to say that, but I do derive a good amount of entertainment from gambling, which makes me happy, fills a gap of being bored, gives me something to look forward to and be interested in etc.  But mentioned above, it has to be the right type of gambling and the right type of situation.  If losing makes you upset to the point where it brings great stress on you, or the potential for great stress..I think we are talking about a different situation entirely.
Actually it really sounds different and very much unusual to have someone saying they get some health benefits off gambling because in the literal case, it's always been negativity when talking about gambling, it's be so bad that it sounds like there's never an advantage to gambling except for the numerous disadvantages which people are mainly focused on the most and talk about almost often than they appreciate the achievement some have ever gotten gambling, just like you, I have seen some other who literally get the best form of relaxation gambling and not from other things which others would rather consider better, these set of person gamble really differently and not like the regular emotional gamblers who have given the very bad perception about gambling.

Gambling is not bad after all but addiction is, gambling has been receiving a lot of negative reactions and feedback but gambling also has a lot of health benefits associated with it but you can only get these benefits if you are a responsible gambler and you have total control of what you wage and limit your bankroll

These are some of the benefits to see more of its benefits you can read the whole article here

But when an addiction in involved this no longer becomes the case...if you are looking for something to blow off steam or reduce your stress and anxiety I wouldn't recommend gambling because if you get hooked to the lifestyle you are prone to have some health issues and one major condition is cardiac arrest,  so many young people now are having this and a lot of health practitioners are curious to know the spikes behind this. Majority of these young people either gamble or trade forex. I don't think it has any benefits

There is alcohol when they gamble it may have become their habit but it is true that gambling is more stressful if it is done all day and this is a waste of time and money, this is usually people who are lazy and already addicted will gamble all day.

What is better is:
Do not gamble while drinking beer, do it with a time limit, say 2-3 hours to gamble it should also be in leisure time.
Now the important thing is how to manage the bankroll well, at least this is the most important in gambling.

Gambling and drinking booze sure do seem to walk hand-in-hand, I get it.  Like when you are out with your buddies playin poker or placing bets on the game.  But I think a buncha gamblers actually try not to down too many cold ones when they gamble cause it messes with your thinking.  Makes you do dumb stuff without thinking it through.

And yeah, its not like most folks go nuts all the time.  But even just gettin smashed here and there while you gamble can turn out ugly.

All these benefits mentioned here are beneficial if the gambler isn't addicted to it. Gambling is a stress reliever and so is every other recreational activity but a lot of people can't relate to this because they don't gamble moderately. Before diving into the content of the thread I was a bit perplexed as to the fact that gambling isn't supposed to have any health benefits but it became clearer when I studied your points carefully. Gambling has a higher chance of causing health challenges rather than health benefits but it all depends on how you let it influence you. Some people started out using gambling as a stress reliever now they are dealing with high blood pressure

I don’t know why this came up again, but I think everybody knows that there are no direct health benefits Aside from the dopamine-rich entertainment that gambling offers. I believe there are no health benefits. In terms of physical ones, it could make you better, but maybe some mental stuff could be ongoing.

It might be a dual-edged sword because if you win, you may experience less stress, but if you lose, you may experience more stress.
gambling is also often accompanied by other bad habits such as alcohol. In addition to wasted nerves, watching football can also result in drinking a lot of beer. Or, for example, when we play poker with friends and it can last all night, alcohol is also present and in the morning you may not feel your best.
I realize that this is bad, but this also happens quite rarely.

Yes it is the influence of the situation and environment, but not everyone can really get carried away, there are some of them who are firm and firm in their stance which is when some of their friends gamble or watch football while doing other bad things like drinking beer or drugs but there are always some of them who prefer not to participate in the habit.
I think it depends on the person and their stance, if they know and realize that it is not beneficial at all and actually has the potential to cause health problems then they should be able to restrain themselves, the decision is in your own hands and I am sure some of your friends will understand and appreciate the decision.

Gambling has both negative and positive, and it depends on how you manage your gambling life style before you enjoy the benefit in the gambling, I don’t really have much to control about on this, but I just want to talk about little on the negative side of it, it can effect your heart because of the fear of losing in your mind which can definitely give you a high blood pressure and cost you damages in your body system and your thinking, we all need to be careful and mind how we gamble

I am sure, fear of losing does not fully affect the gambler's heart because I am sure, what makes a gambler experience heart disease, stress, pressure, high blood pressure and so on because they do not have a healthy lifestyle. Thus, they will easily be attacked by these diseases. After all, every gambler will not always bet with money that exceeds their wealth,  so when they bet basically only use money that is ready to lose. Even though they bet with money that is not ready to lose, but I am sure they do not use all their savings although indeed, there are also those who use all their savings, but that does not happen to every gambler.

With such an assumption, then even though they are worried about losing results but because they also only gamble with money that is not much. So basically, the fear of losing will not really affect their heart, because the disease they suffer from may be because they already have a history of illness, and or do not have a healthy lifestyle, but they associate it with gambling because they gamble every day.
I have long been very interested in professional poker and players. So I noticed that many of them have sports hobbies, for some reason it is often basketball, cycling or working out in the gym. I am sure that this is the secret that helps to withstand a moral blow in games when losing. The body of a trained player is ready to resist not only physical impacts, but also becomes morally stable. For example, I remember that running throws off negative thoughts, I once did it as an amateur and reading this topic I wanted to do it again. My advice to those who want to start doing sports, but took a long break, you need to start small and gradually increase the load and this will bear fruit, no doubt.

It can also be a fun activity to avoid other addictions, I personally think that it can avoid you from smoking addiction, alcohol and even drugs. I know many people might disagree also with me, but in my personal experience, few times before when I get the urge of smoking or drinking, I start a session of gambling in a reputable crypto casino and I finish my night in bed without consuming anything.
Gambling by itself is a fun activity as any other activities that involve spending money or purchasing a ticket, and the same goes whenever you abuse something good it turns to a very bad thing.

I hope that anyone who has addictions before, to really understand how this thing work and how to enjoy with moderation, then later you may find it healthy and benefit you in a good way rather than bringing more negativity into your lifestyle.

Gambling has its positives, it's a fun past time and if done in moderation it has its qualities. However, talking about health benefits of gambling is an overstatement and I don't think gambling should be approached this way. You don't have to ascribe benefits to gambling to make it attractive. Leave that up to medicine... Gambling has enough positive properties to make people want to try it and be marketable on it's own.
The gambling activity significantly manages the overall health care of someone especially when it's appropriately required.However, research has shown that gambling can significantly affect and improve your mood, happiness and helps with socialization/social habits.
Despite numerous evidences from research and studies,a lot of individuals will still find the information complicated.
 Gambling with moderation definitely marks you out against psychological effects and That's exactly what guarantees you to enjoy unhealthy obsession/addictions,improves health and lower rates of chronic health conditions.

Wow, I didn't until now that gambling has its own share of benefits but i think your mood only improves if you are winning but if someone losses in gambling he will be having a bad mood IMO.

Yes, I do agree that some form of gambling is a stress reliever and one of that is "cockfighting". Have many friends said that if you are really a cockfighting enthusiast your stress will be relieved once you are in a cockfight arena which I tend to believe is true.
There are So many Health advantages that helps To relieve stress on the part of the Gamblers or even the spectactors or viewers .lets consider How we feel watching the following
1.horse racing
2.dog racing
3.Ram fighting And many more . When you bet on the following there is this Joy you will feel around you And a lot of  excitement as well even on the Side of the viewers and  this actually relieve you from depression And mental stress.and it also increases your life span . Lastly as a gambler always try so hard to look on the health benefits and stick in gambling on the ones that makes you more happy

Exactly gambling responsibly is all about self-control. Like you mentioned, in ability to manage your gambling activities properly will also cause you to become unable to get the emphasized health benefits of gambling. Infact gambling addiction in the literal sense is more like a core inability to manage gambling activities properly especially when in comes to the most important aspects which are the time related aspect and the staking aspect relating to money.
Many people are of the opinion that gambling has some key health benefits which is arguably true. However one can only enjoy such benefits if they can manage their gambling activities properly.
People take risks and some withdraw from the race. There are possible strategies to implement if one is keen on winning, we have obstacles to handle but there are some risks that are just worth taking and if it'd been triggered, I'll be smiling with reasonable amounts. Gambling is within our control, we can only make huge earnings from gambling when you've succeeded in hitting the lotto, that will be one of the breakthrough to remained stable and top earning.

You will only experience such mentioned health benefits if you know how to contain your gambling activities. But if not, I don't think you can appreciate what gambling has to offer because for sure you will financial stress for one. If you are into gambling because you are trying to hit some winnings because you have little to no more money in your pocket, I can say, you are just subjecting yourself to trouble.

When someone gambles excessively of course they will have a bad impact on themselves, especially in terms of finances because it is very difficult to be able to win gambling continuously and we will suffer a lot of losses due to losing the bets we play, those who can win gambling will certainly be able to enjoy the victory and for those who cannot win, of course this will make them have a burden on their minds which will have an impact on their health, for some people who have lost a lot in the gambling they play, of course they will never think about it again and only the victory obtained can they enjoy.

Yes, I agree with what you say, many people sometimes do not realize what they are spending because they are so involved in their game that sometimes they see money as almost unimportant but enough to continue playing, the reason for playing the game too much is that things will not go well for them at some point and that will make them lose more easily. I am one of the people who always before playing once, the first thing I do is see how much money I am willing to put in, because I spend it as before, no, because that is decapitalizing.

When we play in a casino we can get a lot of money, and sometimes even lose track of what we are spending, that is an excessive and Harmful game, losing money so easily is not a good thing. It will bring us problems all the time.

Gambling is only beneficial depending on the individual practice or application of it. Someone who isn't Gambling in moderate environment, the benefits will turn to be disaster.

Before it becomes beneficial we must understand the underlying factor why people gamble, as far as I know 80% gamble for gain not really to achieve those health benefits and most locals ain't concerrn with it either. The consequences outlay the benefits, as other activities can also give one same benefit.

Gamble responsibly, moderation over everything then you can obtain a health balance. And once one begin to consider that gambling can be beneficial and a source of relive this might lead to addiction as he will constantly seek to gamble just to relieve himself, this is a two edge sword.

You will only experience such mentioned health benefits if you know how to contain your gambling activities. But if not, I don't think you can appreciate what gambling has to offer because for sure you will financial stress for one.

The effect gambling has on a gambler is personal, it depends on the ways the player follows his strategies. Our strategies can indeed be temporary in many ways, such that most players may not be able to control or maintain their methods. Or maybe, the strategy isn't fine enough to fetch the player what he wants in gambling. Hence, he'd look out for a better method of gambling that could yield him what he wants. But some strategies can be risky, especially when they revolve around making lots of profits in gambling. The player, who wants lots of profits, will end up receiving lots of failures that could lead to anxiety and then addiction.

That shows he'll never receive any further health benefits from gambling. A player who wants to develop his critical thinking skills can get that in gambling. It depends wholly on the person's gambling methods, and how he's able to think and rethink methods of recreating fresh strategies that'll make his gambling journey fun and exciting. But not everyone is opportune to devise good strategies for gambling, and don't know that gambling has some health benefits. So, they'll never receive those benefits listed by the OP.

Despite all the strategies that gamblers try to implement to maximize their chances of winning. It is important to remember that there is no guarantee that every strategy we apply will produce wins and profits. Because gambling is only about chance, and the possibility of losing is always greater than winning. Especially if we bet on types of gambling that only rely on luck, such as slots, lottery and other similar types of gambling.

It is indeed quite important for us to be able to improve our skills and strategies in betting or gambling, to simply increase our chances of winning. But you need to remember that there are things that are more important than that, namely managing gambling activities and good self-control, because in fact, in gambling we often lose a lot of money than we make a profit. Therefore, so that our gambling activities run well, without causing serious problems and negative impacts, especially for our mental health. So it is quite important for us to be able to impose limits on gambling activities, both in terms of expenditure made for gambling and time spent gambling. So that we can minimize the losses that occur, and avoid all the negative impacts of irresponsible gambling.

We can always enumerate some health benefits of any vice that we can think of. But we need to ask ourselves, will those benefits outweigh the bad impact to your life? Now, that is for you to contemplate with. If you believe an activity is doing more negative, better pause or stop it before it is too late.
