In the last decade, the nature and purpose of wars have changed, along with the rules and methods of conducting military activities. The problem of chronic stress has come to be a significant factor in foreign peacekeeping and policing missions. Physical training and psychological methods have been covered so far in the preparation and management of the stock in extreme environments. Our examination of the neurobiological side concerns the process. We assume that the biological state of the 60-year-old healthy population is closest to the situation of younger, distressed people.We studied the effect of water with high oxygen content (Kaqun water) on cardiovascular and mental functions of elderly people in a randomized, doubleblind, control group study. We have examined the plethysmogram, the standard deviation of the pulse in relaxed state and under load with the tools of heart rate variability (HRV) analysis, the speed of vasodilation (flexibility), blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), oxygen saturation, simple reaction time (SRT) and cognitive reaction time (CRT). We experienced significant changes in the reduction of systolic blood pressure, reflex time and cognitive time, stress index. These are early signs of changes in chronic stress. The use of Kaqun water has normalized the status of test subjects. Based on this—as well as our experience—the use of Kaqun water is also recommended in operational conditions to increase combat ability, regeneration and rehabilitation.
