ABSTRACT

Objective: Astronauts deal with lots of health issues during space exploration. In this review article, we explore the health hazards of astronauts and possible therapeutic approaches or precautions they should take prior to or during space travel for relief from these health complications.

Background: The space environment is very different from our planet’s environment. The major differences include radiation from high-level hazardous radioactive particles, vacuum in space, and weightlessness in microgravity. In microgravity, gravitational force decreases with distance. Astronauts deal with anticipated as well as occasional incidents during space flight due to extreme temperatures (either hot or cold), high-energy radiation, vacuum, and atomic oxygen.

Method: A literature-based survey from different search engines is collected and reviewed.

Results: Possible therapeutic approaches can temporarily relieve astronauts of their specific health issues. Pranayama and Yoga heal both mind and body, and prepare the body to adjust and adapt to any kind of atmospheric situation as well as climatic conditions. Practicing these techniques during their training period can be beneficial for astronauts.

Conclusion: Researchers should work on alternative treatment approaches for health hazards during space flight. Effective treatment and care for astronauts, including proper nutrition and preparation of proper herbal or polyherbal formulations, should focus techniques that are beneficial for them and improve their outcomes in space exploration.

微重力下宇航员健康危害的预防措施及可能的治疗方法

摘要

目的:宇航员在太空探索过程中处理许多健康问题。在这篇评论文章中,我们探讨了宇航员的健康危害以及在太空旅行之前或期间应采取的可能的治疗方法或预防措施,以缓解这些健康并发症。

背景:太空环境与我们星球的环境有很大不同。主要区别包括来自高水平有害放射性粒子的辐射,空间真空和微重力失重。在微重力中,重力随距离减小。宇航员应对由于极端温度(高温或低温),高能辐射,真空和原子氧而在太空飞行中发生的预期事件和偶发事件。

方法:收集并审查来自不同搜索引擎的基于文献的调查。

结果:可能的治疗方法可以暂时减轻宇航员的特定健康问题。呼吸法和瑜伽可以治愈身心,并为身体做好调整以适应和适应任何一种大气情况和气候条件的准备。在训练期间练习这些技术对宇航员可能是有益的。

结论:研究人员应研究太空飞行期间对健康危害的替代治疗方法。对宇航员的有效治疗和护理,包括适当的营养以及适当的草药或多草药制剂的制备,应集中于对他们有益的技术,并改善其在太空探索中的成果。
