numerous major psychological studies have found that depression is responsible for more missed workdays than any other disease.

Explanation:

The claim is about yoga improving the mental health of depressed individuals. The first option is a general statement about exercise making people feel better, not specific to yoga and depression. The second option is a study from a medical journal that specifically shows depressed patients practicing yoga for twelve weeks had significant improvements in emotional well - being, which directly supports the claim. The third option is about depression causing more missed workdays, which is not related to yoga improving mental health.

Answer:

A study in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine found that depressed patients who practiced yoga for twelve weeks reported significant improvements in their emotional well - being.
