30-second bursts of exercise may help reduce panic attacks, study finds - The Washington Post

A new study finds that 30-second bursts of exercise may help reduce the frequency or severity of panic attacks, offering a quick, usable tool for people with panic disorder. Researchers suggest these micro-bursts could be used alongside therapy techniques or medication to prevent attacks or shorten their duration. The result adds to other research showing brief physical activity can benefit memory and that regular fitness in midlife improves long-term health, highlighting both immediate and lasting advantages of short exercise episodes.
