✅ About high altitude sickness:
The average altitude in the western Sichuan region is between 3000-3500 meters. Be sure to prepare for altitude sickness prevention before departure. Friends who are visiting the plateau for the first time should take medicines like Rhodiola a month in advance, keep a calm mindset after arrival, drink more water, eat more vegetables and fruits, and ensure adequate sleep
·
✅ How to effectively prevent altitude sickness?
✔️ Stop exercising half a month before entering the plateau to reduce oxygen consumption
✔️ Do not engage in strenuous exercise, running, or speak loudly
✔️ Do not stay in the wind for a long time, which can cause headaches
✔️ Do not bathe or wash your hair on the first day after entering the plateau
✔️ Do not drink alcohol after entering the plateau
✔️ Drink more hot water and butter tea
·
💌 Notes:
The plateau area has strong sunlight and ultraviolet rays, so be sure to prepare sun umbrellas, sun protection clothing, sunscreen, sunglasses, lip balm, and hydrating masks💦 Always wear sunglasses🕶️ when going out to prevent eye damage
