A powerful magnetic storm is expected in Ukraine in the coming days: how to protect your health

At the end of September, the Earth will be covered by a powerful red-level magnetic storm, which can significantly affect the condition of people.

This is stated on the website of the Space Weather Forecasting Center.

In particular, between September 25 and 28, solar activity will be at a low level, in particular, the K-index will be 2. This means that magnetic field fluctuations are minimal, although sensitive people may experience slight discomfort.

Instead, scientists warned that a red-level magnetic storm will occur on September 29 — the K-index will reach 5.

A storm caused by solar activity can significantly affect people’s condition and well-being. As a result, headaches, blood pressure spikes, irritability, and insomnia are possible.

During this period, it is worth reducing physical and mental stress, drinking enough water, following a sleep schedule, and avoiding unhealthy foods. Weather-dependent people and people with chronic diseases should especially closely monitor their health and consult a doctor if necessary.

The next day, September 30, solar activity will decline, but scientists have warned of a possible weak magnetic storm with a K-index of 3. Although most people will not feel its effects, sensitive people may experience headaches, drowsiness, and mood swings. To minimize the impact, you should follow general rules for leading a healthy lifestyle.
