Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Endorphins are natural painkillers produced by the body. They help to alleviate pain and stress by interacting with the brain's opiate receptors, reducing our perception of pain and acting similarly to drugs like morphine and codeine, but without the risk of addiction or overdose. They are known to produce a feeling of well-being and can be released in response to pain, stress, or exercise, helping to bring about a state of calm.
