It is expected that December will be rich in magnetic storms, which means that there will be an increase in the number of people who are exacerbated by chronic diseases.

As the doctor-expert Victor Litvinenko points out, especially during this period people suffering from heart diseases can suffer.

It is known that about 70% of all deaths from coronary heart disease occur precisely during the time of strong geomagnetic disturbances.

The doctor also notes that in the risk group - the elderly and infants, as well as meteosensitive patients. They are people of any age and sex with a shaky psycho-emotional background that react to weather changes, temperature changes, atmospheric pressure. These days they suffer from mood swings and anxious conditions much more often, they turn to doctors with complaints about "squeezing" in the chest area, "tinnitus".

The doctor pays attention to a number of symptoms that come during a magnetic storm. Among them: severe headaches, pressure jumps, aching and pressing pains in the heart area, a state of unreasonable anxiety that begin to suddenly appear 1-2 days before the magnetic storm and pass through 3-4 days, mood swings, pre-stupor states, the effect of " black bugs "before the eyes.

The doctor says that in this period it is especially important not to expose yourself to strong physical exertion and try to rest more. "It is not superfluous to arrange unloading of the stomach in the days of magnetic disturbances. Eat less fatty and sugary foods - in days of storms, the cholesterol level rises (so the body responds to stress). Include in the diet more fruits, vegetables, bread from wholemeal flour. Give up alcohol and smoking or at least limit yourself in them, "he says..

He also believes that you need to walk more in the open air, try to avoid stress and nervous overloads. It is also necessary to limit the hours of use of the laptop and smartphone.

During magnetic storms, the amount of oxygen in the air decreases, which leads to hypoxia - oxygen starvation - of the body tissues, including the brain.

Because of this, we can feel very tired, even if not severely strained, headaches, palpitations. Deterioration of well-being during magnetic storms is possible in hypertensive patients, cores suffering from bronchial asthma (it becomes harder to breathe).

In addition, even in healthy people, the adrenal glands begin to release in high amounts of stress hormones - adrenaline and cortisol. As a result, irritability rises, a feeling of unreasonable anxiety, a decrease in efficiency, attention, blood jumps in the blood.
