The most intense impact is expected on the following days:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-end=\"648\" data-start=\"603\">\n<strong>July 28, Monday: <\/strong>G1 level storm (moderate)<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"695\" data-start=\"651\">\n<strong>July 29, Tuesday:<\/strong> G2 level storm (strong)<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"746\" data-start=\"698\">\n<strong>July 30, Wednesday: <\/strong>G1 level storm (moderate)<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"826\" data-start=\"749\">\n<strong>July 31 to August 1:<\/strong> moderate geomagnetic disturbances, possible local flares<\/li>\n<p>&#13;\n<\/ul>\n<p data-end=\"947\" data-start=\"828\">The peak of activity will drop on July 29, when problems with concentration, blood pressure, and sleep are most likely.<\/p>\n<p><strong data-end=\"977\" data-start=\"949\">What is a magnetic storm?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-end=\"1141\" data-start=\"949\">Geomagnetic storms are caused by solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). During these flares, a large number of charged particles are released into space.<\/p>\n<p data-end=\"1366\" data-start=\"1143\">When these charged particles reach Earth, they disrupt the planet\u2019s magnetic field. According to NOAA\u2019s international scale, if the K-index exceeds 5 (G2), this is already a red-level storm, capable of affecting well-being.<\/p>\n<p><strong data-end=\"1396\" data-start=\"1368\">How storms affect people<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-end=\"1505\" data-start=\"1368\">Geomagnetic fluctuations can impact both physical and emotional states. The most sensitive groups include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-end=\"1546\" data-start=\"1509\">People with cardiovascular diseases<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1603\" data-start=\"1549\">Those who suffer from chronic headaches or migraines<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1619\" data-start=\"1606\">The elderly<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1670\" data-start=\"1622\">Children and teenagers during hormonal changes<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1687\" data-start=\"1673\">Pregnant women<\/li>\n<p>&#13;\n<\/ul>\n<p data-end=\"1718\" data-start=\"1689\"><strong>The most common symptoms are:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-end=\"1732\" data-start=\"1722\">Headache<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1745\" data-start=\"1735\">Migraine<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1759\" data-start=\"1748\">Dizziness<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1783\" data-start=\"1762\">High blood pressure<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1796\" data-start=\"1786\">Weakness<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1811\" data-start=\"1799\">Poor sleep<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1844\" data-start=\"1814\">Irritability and mood swings<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1856\" data-start=\"1847\">Anxiety<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1868\" data-start=\"1859\">Fatigue<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"1894\" data-start=\"1871\">Decreased concentration<\/li>\n<p>&#13;\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong data-end=\"1932\" data-start=\"1896\">What can help improve well-being<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-end=\"2149\" data-start=\"1896\">It\u2019s impossible to protect yourself from magnetic storms completely, especially since they affect many bodily processes. However, it is possible to reduce their negative impact on the human body. To do this, you should:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-end=\"2192\" data-start=\"2153\">Avoid physical and emotional overload<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"2243\" data-start=\"2195\">Drink more water (at least 1.5\u20132 liters a day)<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"2282\" data-start=\"2246\">Reduce caffeine and alcohol intake<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"2305\" data-start=\"2285\">Eat balanced meals<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"2326\" data-start=\"2308\">Avoid exhaustion<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"2367\" data-start=\"2329\">Rest more and sleep at least 7 hours<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"2405\" data-start=\"2370\">Reduce screen time in the evening<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"2473\" data-start=\"2408\">Engage in light physical activity such as walking or stretching<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li data-end=\"2510\" data-start=\"2476\">Air out rooms, even in hot weather<\/li>\n<p>&#13;\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong data-end=\"2536\" data-start=\"2512\">When to see a doctor<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-end=\"2770\" data-start=\"2512\">If symptoms persist or worsen (for example, if your blood pressure spikes or you feel chest pain), consult a therapist or cardiologist. Magnetic storms can act as a trigger for issues, but are not their root cause.<\/p>\n<p data-end=\"2979\" data-start=\"2772\"><strong data-end=\"2806\" data-start=\"2772\">You may be interested in:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-end=\"3084\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\" data-start=\"2981\">Sources: SpaceWeatherLive.com (NOAA SWPC), Space Weather Prediction Center (NOAA).<\/p>\n<p class=\"nfo\">This material is for informational purposes only and should not be used for medical diagnosis or self-treatment.
