Impact of magnetic storms on people Scientists from around the world have been studying the effects of magnetic storms on people for many years, and there is still no consensus. However, numerous studies confirm a link between people's deteriorating well-being and magnetic storms.
During such days, people more frequently complain of weakness, headaches, and often seek medical attention, including from cardiologists.
Common complaints include:
Headaches, migraines, and dizziness. Insomnia or excessive sleepiness. General weakness and worsened well-being. Increased fatigue, decreased concentration, and productivity. Heightened anxiety, depression, irritability, and aggression.
The greatest danger from such storms is posed to astronauts who are beyond the protective shield of Earth's atmosphere. They can be exposed to high levels of radiation, significantly increasing the risk of cancer development.
What to do during magnetic storms
Medical professionals provide patients with general recommendations during these days, advising them to rest more, get proper sleep, avoid overexertion, and breathe fresh air.
Additionally:
Sleep for 7-9 hours and maintain a regular daily schedule. Balance work and leisure. Eat a balanced diet and drink an adequate amount of water. Spend time outdoors daily. Reduce stress and avoid excessive strain. Seek medical advice from a family doctor if necessary.
