Combatting Altitude Sickness the Natural Way
The following recommendations were sent to me by Ms Lisa Allen. I am by no means recommending or endorsing any of them, as I have not tried them. However, Lisa lives in a similar climate, and has tried at least some of them before. I am just posting this as an FYI….
In the $7-$11 range there are two options that are both excellent.
1) “Altitude Adjustment” by Sun Country 1-800-722-8420
This is a great one to take pro-actively. They are in capsule form and
you can start taking them on the plane with a lot of water. I have used
these and found them very effective. The last time I came back to Taos
after being away for seven months the altitude hit me. I used these for
about five days.
2) “ChlorOxygen” Chlorophyll Concentrate by Herbs etc. www.herbsetc.com
This comes in liquid form, which is great because liquid always works
faster. It helps to build red blood cells quickly, which is what counters
altitude sickness.
The last one is expensive, but powerful. It will run $25-$30
3) “Cell Food” by Luminia Health Products 1-800-749-9196
It is a liquid once again and combines taking care of altitude sickness
side effects and building red blood cells quickly.
The most important thing of course, is for people to drink water before
they feel thirsty. When you are nauseated carbonated beverages make you
feel better but they also continue to dehydrate you. If you can find it
good old Gatorade can work wonders.
