33、hat endorphins(內(nèi)啡肽)—chemicals in the body that cause happiness—are behind the so-called “runner’s high”， a study suggested that there may be more to this phenomenon than we previously knew. According to a recent study published by a group of scientists from several German universities, a group of

34、chemicals called endocannabinoids(內(nèi)源性大麻素) may actually be responsible for this familiar great feeling. To test this theory, the scientists turned to mice.
