VOICE OF FREE EUROPE:  A powerful planetary-scale magnetic storm has begun on Earth. It is nearly reaching the highest level of G5, scientists warn. Earth’s magnetic field parameters are currently near historically high levels.

This intense activity is happening because three plasma clouds are arriving near Earth. This is occurring amid an extreme surge in solar flares. We report on who will be most impacted by this powerful storm and how to minimize its unpleasant symptoms.

On Wednesday, November 12, a powerful magnetic storm of G4.7 magnitude strikes the Earth.

The Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences reported this. The Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences also reported this.

‘A very strong planetary-scale magnetic storm is currently being recorded by geomagnetic monitoring equipment. It is nearly reaching the highest level of G5. This is in connection with the arrival of the first of three plasma clouds. These clouds are expected to reach Earth today amid an extreme increase in flare activity,’ the scientists note. 

Impact on humans and recommendations of doctors

During periods of geomagnetic disturbances, people can often experience a deterioration in their health. Neurologist and expert at the Hemotest laboratory, Ekaterina Demyanovskaya, spoke about the impact of magnetic storms on the human body.

According to her, poor health during a magnetic storm occurs due to the body’s reaction to changing environmental conditions. The effects are primarily mediated by the autonomic nervous system, which controls internal organs.

‘There is evidence that fluctuations in the Earth’s magnetic field can affect the heart’s pacemaker. This is the part of the heart muscle where impulses are generated.

‘This slows the blood flow in small vessels and reduces the tissue’s ability to absorb oxygen. This causes mild oxygen starvation of tissues, including brain cells,’ the expert explains.

People with existing vascular problems, chronic heart disease, or nervous system disorders react most acutely to such changes.

Their bodies are forced to expend more energy to adapt to the new conditions. This leads to headaches and fluctuations in blood pressure. It also causes general weakness and difficulty concentrating.

‘To help yourself during these times, it’s important to reduce the strain on your body’s major systems.

It’s important to maintain a gentle daily routine and avoid intense physical and emotional stress. Leisurely walks in the fresh air help improve circulation,’ the doctor advises.

The interviewee also recommends paying attention to fluid intake. Limiting foods that can retain fluid in the body is important. Such foods can cause fluctuations in blood glucose levels. These include those high in salt and sugar.

For chronic diseases, it is necessary to have on hand the medications recommended by your doctor. 

‘If magnetic storm symptoms interfere with your daily activities, consult a doctor. Weather sensitivity may be a symptom of other health problems. These issues might require treatment,’ the expert warned.
