What to do during magnetic storms

During periods of disturbances in the Earth's atmosphere due to solar flares, people often experience complaints such as headaches, irritability, mood swings, high/low blood pressure, joint and muscle pain, sleep problems/permanent drowsiness, and exacerbation of chronic diseases.

Experts advise:

1. Drink plenty of clean water, green or herbal tea. Avoid coffee, alcoholic beverages, and energy drinks altogether.

2. Maintain a balanced diet by consuming adequate amounts of fat, protein, carbohydrates, and fiber. In summer, do not limit yourself to fresh fruits, berries, and vegetables.

3. Increase outdoor activities, go for light jogs, and incorporate light physical activity into your routine. Remember that experts do not recommend spending excessive time in direct sunlight.

4. Adjust your sleep and rest schedule and avoid stressful situations.
