Dehydration

Although the physiological changes of pregnancy develop simultaneously across many systems, different processes may dominate at different stages. In early pregnancy, hormonal shifts, restructuring of vascular tone, activation of the thyroid gland, and increased toxic load associated with the processing of a large volume of hormonal metabolites are more pronounced. In mid-pregnancy, the increasing metabolic load and the expansion of circulating blood volume come to the forefront. In late pregnancy, mechanical and compressive factors related to uterine growth become more prominent.

Pregnancy is a period when the body begins to function under significantly altered conditions. Within a short time, the systems of circulation, digestion, hormonal regulation, immunity, metabolism, and the functioning of internal organs undergo restructuring. These changes are normal and are aimed at the development of the child; however, they require a large amount of resources and stability of all physiological processes.

Those who have never experienced a migraine rarely understand what stands behind this word. It is not just a headache and not the fatigue after a hard day. A migraine seems to switch a person off from life: light becomes unbearably bright, sounds - deafening, and even slight movement intensifies the pain. In such moments you want only one thing - to hide in silence, darkness, and rest.

Multisystem chronic conditions are disorders in which multiple body systems—such as the nervous, vascular, digestive, musculoskeletal, and immune systems—are affected simultaneously. Symptoms can range widely, from dizziness and pain to digestive issues and persistent fatigue.

Everyone knows how important it is to protect your skin from the sun, and this becomes even more crucial if you work outdoors all day. Continuous exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays can have detrimental effects on our skin. These include sunburn, premature skin aging such as the appearance of pigmented spots, and even an increased risk of skin cancer.

Recently, I have been frequently asked about the benefits of consuming a large amount of water. To give you an idea of the volume in question, a normal level of water consumption for an adult is considered to be 8 glasses per day. This fluid intake recommendation is not supported by specific research; it is simply an approximate value that is commonly suggested. And this volume includes all fluids that enter the body throughout the day.
