How does weather affect health?

 If it rains:

 >

Weight gain : Scientists at Aberdeen University discovered that if the weather is harsh, it will have a negative impact on people who are on a diet because obese people often have low vitamin D levels.

Amount of vitamin D transported by blood to motor organs through a hormone called leptin. This hormone tells the brain that the stomach is full and the body has enough energy. But because obese people have low vitamin D levels, the function of this hormone is poor leading to cravings and continued weight gain.

E.Coli bacteria: Heavy rain and increased humidity are ideal conditions for the growth of bacteria that cause sick. Scientists have found that the more it rains, the more people infected with E.Coli increase. Due to wet farms, cattle are infected with E.Coli  O157. This bacteria sticks to farmers’ boots and transmits the disease to domestic animals. From there it is transmitted to humans.

 

< i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal">Healed scars are painful: There are many people who have old wounds that have healed, but when the weather is bad, the wounds spontaneously heal. However, it hurts. Explaining this phenomenon, Dr. Adam Carey (British Olympic Association) said that increased air pressure often accompanies a signal of a storm. When the outdoor pressure suddenly drops, the skin in the scar cannot stretch in time and becomes stiff and inflexible according to body movements. As a result, the sensory nerve is stretched and pain occurs.

Premature birth phenomenon: “Low pressure leads to many complications for pregnant women. As a result, when the weather is bad, many mothers go into labor due to increased blood pressure,” Dr. Bowen Simpkin explained.

Pain: Older women often complain They worry that when the weather is humid, their bodies ache and chronic arthritis raged. Actually, there is nothing difficult to understand.

 >

The body is very sensitive when there is a small change in pressure. Nerves receive signals about these small but continuous changes and form a series of continuous reactions. And the pain appears.

 

< i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal">Ear diseases: Ear infections are a typical disease in humid weather. Due to the high humidity in the air, it is a favorable environment for bacteria to grow and develop.

Ear infections are caused by infectious diseases transmitted through the thin skin of the ear through the ear canal into the ear, changing the environment in the ear and causing itchy ears. People living in humid areas often suffer from this disease

Gout: Scientists at Boston University in the US have discovered that gout often attacks the body in the environment. environments with high humidity or dehydration of the body.

When it’s sunny:

 

One ​​of the typical phenomena is Suicide. Researchers said after studying more than 50,000 suicides in England and Wales from 1993 – 2003. At this time, the human body often appears paranoid due to nervous tension.

When the weather turns colder:

 >

Stomach disease: Is caused by a sudden drop in temperature and the immune system has to suddenly adjust according to external conditions. This phenomenon happens quickly and intensely, controlled by a virus. Therefore, in winter, many disease-causing viruses often appear.

Heart attacks and strokes: More than 20,000 deaths in the UK are due to strokes and heart attacks. related to the temperature of the weather.

 >

Low temperatures and cold air make the heart work harder. When there is a lack of oxygen, a heart attack will occur. People with congenital heart disease or a history of heart attack should pay attention to this.

Stroke also often occurs because blood “thickens” in cold weather, forming blood clots, causing cerebral thrombosis.

 >

Flu and colds: During this season, we often get colds or flu because of the sudden inhalation of cold air. Infection-fighting cells in the nose don’t work effectively. The virus enters the body through nasal mucus. This explains why flu spreads from person to person.

 >

 >When it’s stormy and windy:

 >

Headaches and migraines appear: Air temperature changes complicatedly before a storm occurs. The nerve cells in the brain that control movement of the whole body receive different signals, causing blood vessels to constrict, causing headaches and migraines

 >

Asthma :There are many people who have to suffer from this disease every time the weather changes.  Before the storm appears, it is often accompanied by many clouds. Dust is thrown into the air. If a family grows flowers, pollen is the culprit. They will follow the respiratory tract into the lungs and attack the lungs.

Stress: At this time, the body is affected by many different and interwoven reflexes. Confusion causes the heart to beat fast and emotions to be uncontrollable.
