Do MRI machines cause heart attacks and seizures?
Apparently "heliobiology" (which is the topic of geomagnetic storms affecting health) was once regarded as a "pseudoscience", but allegedly isn't anymore if this paper is to be believed: https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/mathematics/temporal-correlation Quoting the paper: "The pioneering...- LaraKnowles

Do MRI machines cause heart attacks and seizures?
RBC Ukraine. It popped up on my feed, not sure how far I scrolled down but I'm pretty sure it was next to the top. I've seen dozens of different articles on my MSN feed about geomagnetic storms/solar flares lately, and several of them mentioned how they affect health. No less than 3 years ago...- LaraKnowles

Do MRI machines cause heart attacks and seizures?
All of a sudden, out of nowhere, within the past three years, there have been a myriad of studies all saying that fluctuations in Earth's magnetic field causes heart attacks and other heart problems, due to Earth's magnetic field disrupting the heart's electrical activity. Pretty much every...- LaraKnowles

Do fluctuations in Earth's magnetic field cause heart attacks?
I searched American College of Cardiology and found a paper from Mayo Clinic Proceedings which sourced it which seems to debunk the notion that geomagnetic storms cause arrhythmias: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4807870/ - sample size is also large, at around 60,000 people. No...- LaraKnowles

Medical Can people can breathe through their mouth during sleep?
Turns out that scientists and doctors have proven that the Mark Gleeson story has been made up. Humans breathe through their mouths if they can't breathe through their nose. Nobody's died from a blocked nose. There's not a single case of it reported on NIH or in medical...- LaraKnowles

Medical Can people can breathe through their mouth during sleep?
There was a man named Mark Gleeson who had snoring problems caused by a nose injury. He put tampons up his nostrils to try and cure his snoring, and went to bed. He suffocated in his sleep. The coroner, Michael Burgess, said the tampons contributed to him suffocating. If you believe that...- LaraKnowles
