Your body's altitude plan: speed up ❤️ + breathe faster→ blood gets alkaline→ kidneys dump bicarb→ you pee a lot. It's called hypoxic diuresis and it's NORMAL! Don't fight it, embrace it 💧 and give the process time by ascending slowly #AltitudeSickness #Physiology #MountainScience shorturl.at/OxBMs

🏔️ Altitude sickness can start at 8,200 ft but hits 53% of people at 15,000 ft! #1 factor? Speed of ascent. Climb too fast = 89% illness vs slow = 54%. Your kidneys need time to adapt without an adrenalin surge! shorturl.at/OxBMs #AltitudeSickness #MountainSafety #Hiking
