How it works
Acute exercise rapidly reduces nicotine cravings and withdrawal symptoms — possibly by increasing dopamine and serotonin. Prevents the weight gain that deters many would-be quitters.
Even a brisk 5-minute walk can reduce cravings for up to 30 minutes. Exercise alone is insufficient to support quitting but is a valuable craving-management tool.
Getting started
This is a lifestyle-based approach. Start gradually and consult a health professional if you have any concerns about suitability for your situation.
