For this Discussion Forum assignment, search the evidence-based, professional literature for an article that addresses the topic of addiction as a brain disease. For the purposes of this assignment, a current article will be considered no more than 5 years old (However, newer articles are always preferred and are generally much more applicable). Your article must be from a peer-reviewed journal (thus, not a web page, blog, or encyclopedia, short article, abstract, reviews, etc.). This is to supplement the readings in the course and provide actual evidence. It is recommended that you search databases that are health or health-care focused (remember to check the area that specifies peer reviewed).
Cite and reference your article in APA format (in-text citations and full reference at the end of your post).
Write at least a 7-8 sentence summary and discuss the new information you learned from this article. Does it relate to the readings that were assigned this week?
