Nauseating Heights: Lowering your Risk of Altitude Sickness
May 23, 2009
If you’re heading for high places like the mountains, make sure you’re prepared for the altitude change.
The decreased oxygen in the air at higher altitude can cause altitude sickness. Symptoms can include headache, breathlessness with mild exertion, fatigue, nausea and disturbed sleep. To avoid this:
- Start slowly. Begin at an altitude below 9,000 feet.
- Allow time to adjust. Rest a day after arriving to help you get used to the altitude.
- Take it easy. High altitudes make normal activities more difficult. Slow down if you’re out of breath or tired.
