How to protect yourself during magnetic storms.
Magnetic storms are phenomena associated with increased solar activity. When flares occur on the Sun, they release a huge number of charged particles into space, which then interact with the Earth's magnetic field. For some people, this can cause discomfort and negative changes in health, doctors explained, Ukr.Media reports.
However, experts stressed that the reaction to magnetic storms depends on the individual characteristics of the body. According to them, some patients report headaches, blood pressure spikes or even emotional fluctuations during magnetic storms. This is due to changes in the electromagnetic environment that can affect the nervous system, especially in people prone to such conditions.
Doctors also added that the impact of magnetic storms can be felt by people suffering from chronic diseases. Such patients may experience a deterioration in their well-being, so they should carefully monitor their condition during periods of magnetic fluctuations and, if possible, avoid stress and overload.
Follow a sleep schedule, eat right, exercise, and try to minimize the impact of stress factors. This will help reduce susceptibility to changes in the environment, doctors recommended.
Melatonin can help to cope with the effects of magnetic storms before and after the cosmic phenomenon. However, it should be used only with the permission of a doctor. Regular consumption of clean drinking water to eliminate blood viscosity will also help to survive a magnetic storm.
The main rule of nutrition during magnetic storms is not to overeat and not to burden the body. On these days, it is useful to prepare vegetable soup. You can eat various cereals and legumes, for example, red lentils. They are easy to digest and very nutritious. Boiled or steamed fish is also suitable. Do not abuse coffee and strong tea. These drinks dehydrate the body and overload the nervous system, experts concluded.
