Muscle aches, headaches or feelings of weakness - although the weather itself does not cause illness or disease, dynamic changes in pressure or the onset of other conditions can intensify negative health symptoms. Nowadays, it is quite difficult for some people to connect the aura-related complaints that occur. However, after careful observation of one's own health condition, some coincidences can be found. In this article, we will try to give you a better idea of how the weather affects our health and how to deal with it.
Joint or bone pain and change in weather
With our fast-paced lifestyles, we are increasingly forgetting how much influence we have over our weather. Health is dependent on many factors, and the atmosphere can change the way we feel. Particularly sensitive people often complain of headaches, combining this with sudden pressure surges. Heavy rain is preceded by joint pain in many people. Before a storm, on the other hand, some people report increased feelings of irritability and anxiety. Studies conducted over many years confirm what older generations have naturally observed in themselves. Weather influences a number of factors that are responsible for our wellbeing.
Scientists emphasise that when the aura changes, there are changes in the number of red and white blood cells, and the concentration, as well as the volume of blood, decreases. Citing data from the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management, up to 50-70% among all Poles react to atmospheric changes. Indeed, the weather can make our lives miserable, but knowing the causes of our worse moods, we can try to cope with it. There are also more and more people claiming that the increased reaction to weather changes is due to the disruption of our natural biological rhythm. Man has long ceased to live in accordance with nature and is increasingly bending the primal mechanisms to suit his needs.
Weather and health, or how to improve wellbeing in times of change?
It is worth remembering that people become more sensitive to changes in the weather outside the window as they get older. Studies show that people struggling with obesity also experience more negative effects from rapid changes in the aura than thin people. Of course, it is impossible not to mention depression, neurosis and other illnesses that can be affected by the weather. Health mental, although not directly influenced by the changes outside the window, various symptoms such as despondency or a sense of energy to live can increase or decrease.
A change in mood is the result of, among other things, the sun, whose presence is essential for the body to function properly. Natural sunlight has been proven to increase the secretion of serotonin - the happiness hormone - making us feel happy and full of life. The natural cycle of day and night influences the production of melatonin, which regulates healthy sleep patterns. Furthermore, when exposed to sunlight, our body produces vitamin D - an essential substance that supports the immune system and also strengthens bones and muscles. It is precisely because of a vitamin D deficiency during the autumn and winter period that some people complain of weakness and a worse mood. Often, supplementation of the missing substance is sufficient.
