April 15-21 magnetic storms. what will cause the most pain, how to treat?
Next week, scientists predict a worsening of the geomagnetic situation. According to them, on April 13 and 14, the quiet period will end and solar activity will begin to increase. The same trend will continue from April 15 to 21.
Sergei Bogachev, head of the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, told NEWS.ru that the quiet period that lasted from the beginning of April is coming to an end. The expert predicted a noticeable increase in solar activity on April 13 and 14. Next week, he said, the geomagnetic situation is likely to worsen.
According to the forecasts of the heliogeophysical service of the Institute of Applied Geophysics (FGBU IPG), an unstable state of the geomagnetic field is expected on April 15 and 16, and instability is expected on April 16 and 17. In addition, scientists predicted an outbreak on April 18.
Valentina Denisova, head of the heliogeophysical service of the Institute of Applied Geophysics, told NEWS.ru that a moderate magnetic storm is possible from April 19 to 21.
Who should be careful during magnetic storms?
Magnetic storms can have a significant impact on human well-being and health, say Pacific State University scientists. According to them, this is due to the fact that during fluctuations of the magnetic field, capillary blood flow is noticeably inhibited, and tissue oxygen starvation occurs. Magnetic storms are especially dangerous for people suffering from cardiovascular diseases and hypertension, scientists noted.
According to scientists, those who suffer from angina pectoris, arterial hypertension and similar diseases should follow the forecasts of the weather service about possible geomagnetic storms.
How to protect yourself from magnetic storms?
Victoria Krasnova believes that reports about the health consequences of magnetic storms should not be completely ignored. To maintain health, he recommended following simple recommendations.
“On such days, it is recommended to rest more, worry less about various details, spend more time in the fresh air. In addition, moderate physical activity and a balanced diet are recommended, it is better to avoid fatty foods and alcoholic beverages,” explained Krasnova.
What should not be eaten during magnetic storms?
To minimize the impact of magnetic storms on health, therapist Pavel Smirnov advises weather-dependent people to observe certain rules during magnetic storms. According to him, the implementation of the recommendations will minimize the possible damage to health.
“During such a period, one should walk more in the fresh air and pay attention to physical activity,” Smirnov explained in a conversation with NEWS.ru.
He also recommended taking a warm bath in the evening, as it is very relaxing and makes sleep more restful and healthy.
