I know the chemical production of certain mood stabilizing chemical natural to the body is reduced and even stopped during during active addiction in addicts, and I was wondering what the major benefits were to physical exercise. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated, as well as the location of any articles on this that I could find. Dear Tom, I would suggest that you search medline for articles about this.
Physical exercise has many benefits and there is some data about endorphin release.
I don't know anything about this in recovering addicts. Experts appearing on this page are independent and are solely responsible for editing and fact-checking their material.
