A powerful magnetic storm with a K-index of 6,
corresponding to a red level, is approaching Earth.
Moreover, this geomagnetic storm will last for several
days, and the weakening will only come on October 26.

What is known about this magnetic storm and how to

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.
