Dr. Mercola was a life long runner, too. Something he was reading about that made him quit but I don't recall what that was.

Exercise is only one component of mental health. It's important but it should only be one part of a wider protocol. If exercise was all we needed there wouldn't be any violent criminals among pro athletes, yet there are plenty. And it can't just be any exercise. Exercising too much will stimulate stress hormones.

But yeah, things like endorphins are kind of important.
