According to the NOAA, TESIS satellite systems and international meteorological laboratories around the world, a red-level magnetic storm with a K-index of 5 covered the Earth on Monday, July 29. On Tuesday, this storm became more powerful and is now estimated at 7 points.
Note that all storms caused by solar flares are classified by their power level – from K-index 2 to K-index 9. The higher the K-index, the stronger the storm and its consequences. All storms above K-index 5 are red-level storms. They can cause disruption to satellites, GPRS, mobile or radio communications.
Most often on such days people complain of feeling unwell, headaches, loss of concentration, and poor sleep.
People with chronic diseases and weakened immune systems are at risk.
To minimize the negative effects of the storm, stick to the rules of a healthy lifestyle. On such days, it is worth avoiding stress and heavy loads. It is important to eat less fatty, fried, salty and spicy food. Instead, eat more vegetables and fruits, doctors advise.
Give up coffee, cigarettes and alcohol. Drink more liquids – plain water or herbal teas.
Ventilate your room regularly and try to take at least a short walk in the fresh air. If possible, go to bed at the same time every day and make sure to get enough sleep.
