What are the long-term effects of microgravity on the human body, and how can they be mitigated?
Vision problem- In Microgravity, the fluid shift towards the head can accumulate in upper body featuring the eyes ,Leading to swelling . Due to pressure gradient the shape of the eyes can be change and In microgravity eye muscles become weaker leading to difficulties with focusing and movement.Read more

Excretory system effect- long term Bone effect – Osteoporosis, Reduced bone growth,Change in exposure to weightlessness also lead to kidney stone formation Rise fluid retention – Fluid tend to collect in the upper body, Causing swelling and fluid retention. microgravity can decrease blood flow to kidney
Radiation Effect- Because of radiation exposure high risk of Cancer And DNA damage due to rised in radiation and oxidative Stress
Cardiovascular Problem -The heart muscles Atrophy in space ,which reduces the heart’s Ability to regulate blood pressure (Cardiac Atrophy) .
Bone Effect- Osteoporosis, Reduced Bone Growth, Change in bone shape,Muscle Atrophy
And many other problem such as Balance and coordination issue ,Sleep Disorder, Hormonal Changes,also occurs in microgravity

Microgravity is mitigated by number of ways –
Do exercise in a regular way . Exercise helps to maintain bone density ,Muscle Mass, Cardiovascular heath. A healthy diet is very important for maintaining overall health in microgravity. Medication is also very useful in microgravity. medication can be used to treat some of the Microgravity such as bone loss and muscle Atrophy.
