“Three things cannot be long

hidden: the sun, the moon,

 and the truth.”

Introduction.

The moon's gravitational pull is undoubtedly powerful. Just look at the tides. So it's logical to assume that it will influence the fluids flowing through our  body, like blood, mucus, and brain chemicals.

Human  Sanogenesis and Moon.

Our bodies extensively use elements such as calcium, potassium and sodium ions for transmitting electrical signals between the brain and the nerves.  Large quantities of ions can therefore immensely affect our health because they interfere with our own internal communications  system, at a cellular level. The term lunar effect refers to real or imaginary correlations between specific stages of the roughly 29.5-day lunar cycle and behavior and   physiological changes in living beings on Earth, including humans. In some cases the purported effect may depend on external cues, such as the amount of moonlight.

 Brain.
Much like the Moon is responsible for the ebb and flow of tides, since our brains are a significant source of water,researchers hypothesize the Moon’s gravitational pull could similarly have an effect on your brain, causing erratic behavior.

Heart.

The Moon’s cycles have an affect on your heart. Research found that when exercising, your heart is at its peak performance during a full and new Moon.

 Menstrual Cycle.
A woman’s average menstrual cycle is 28 days, which is quite similar to the 29+ day lunar cycle. This timing may be more than coincidence according to Chinese researchers who discovered that almost 30 percent of all the women monitored ovulated at the full Moon and menstruated during the new Moon. In some cultures there is even a name for this phenomenon, called White Moon Cycle, that essentially mirrors the fertility of the Earth which is said to be most fertile under full moonlight.

Increased Birthrate.

Researchers discovered something interesting: there was a significant increase in the number of births when the gravitation of the Moon to the Earth was most powerful. While researchers admit they are still unclear on exactly how or why this relationship exists, they say it might help healthcare professionals and pregnant women better prepare.

Increased Injuries.

Since the full Moon can affect our behavior in certain ways, it should come as no surprise that we are more prone to accidents or illness during this time, according to some.

Sleep.

people longer to fall asleep during a full moon. In addition, the rate of brain activity that indicates a restful, deep sleep dropped by 30 percent, and, overall, they slept for 20 minutes less. "The lunar cycle seems to influence human sleep, even when one does not see the moon and is not aware of the actual moon phase,"

Heart attack.

A  study found a significant reduction in heart attacks during the three days following a new moon.
