Each additional LE8 point correlated with 5% lower odds of depression (P&lt;0.05).  Participants with low CVH had over 8-fold higher odds of depression compared to those with high CVH (P&lt;0.05).  Those with moderate CVH had around 3-fold higher odds versus high CVH (P&lt;0.05).  These associations persisted after adjustment for sociodemographics, health behaviors, and clinical variables.\nA higher LE8 displayed a negative association with all-cause mortality (HR: 0.975 , 95% CI: 0.972,0.978,P\u2009&lt;0.0001) and cardiovascular mortality (HR: 0.987 , 95% CI: 0.981,0.993,P\u2009&lt;0.0001) .<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Higher adherence to LE8 lifestyle recommendations was associated with lower odds of depression in a nationally representative sample.
