[Regnum] There is no evidence that even strong magnetic storms themselves cause deterioration in health. In most cases, self-hypnosis is the culprit.Cardiologist Alexey Erlich explained this in an interview with Regnum News Agency on Sunday, October 11.

"People who say they're feeling worse usually know about magnetic storms first and then adjust their health accordingly. There's no scientific evidence yet that magnetic storms have any effect on health," Erlich explained.

The doctor added that magnetic radiation has no direct effect on the body. It doesn't cause pain, tingling, or burning. However, because of this, some meteopaths believe it's particularly harmful, supposedly because such rays affect the body at a deeper level.

"During magnetic storms, you should live your life as you normally would. You can't pay attention to the storms themselves because you can't feel them. You should ignore their presence," the cardiologist concluded.

Previously, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences Sergey Yazev, in an interview with Regnum News Agency, also noted that the impact of magnetic storms on the human body is greatly exaggerated. According to the expert, many people don't feel the impact of even the most powerful geo-attacks unless they think about it.

On October 10, the strongest magnetic storm in three months began on Earth. At its peak, the disturbances reached G3 on a five-point scale. The last similar magnetic storm was observed on July 4. Due to magnetic field disturbances, auroras can be observed in various regions of our country.
