How weather-dependent people can protect themselves from the effects of magnetic storms

Weather-dependent people are people who experience the negative impact of weather conditions on their health. Magnetic storms are phenomena that occur as a result of changes in the Earth's magnetic field. They can cause symptoms such as

  • Headaches
  • Problems with sleep
  • Heart rhythm disorders
  • Increased fatigue
  • Anxiety
  • Depression

To protect yourself from the effects of magnetic storms, weather-dependent people should follow these recommendations:

  1. Reduce physical activity. Magnetic storms can cause fatigue, so try to avoid strenuous physical activity during this time.
  2. Drink enough water.
  3. Take care of your diet. Eat foods rich in magnesium and calcium, which help reduce sensitivity to magnetic storms.
  4. Take sedatives. If you experience symptoms such as anxiety or depression, you can take sedatives recommended by your doctor.

Important. If you are experiencing symptoms that may be caused by a magnetic storm, it is important to see a doctor. Your doctor can help you determine if you have magnetic sensitivity and recommend ways to reduce the impact of magnetic storms on your health.
