ONE CONCEPT INCLUDED IN THE CONFERENCE “Extraordinary Adaptation to Chronic Hypoxia and Life at High altitude”:

There is NO LOSS OF ADAPTATION! firmly affirmed the late Prof. Dr. Gustavo Zubieta-Castillo in regards to what many consider is the reason for the existence of Chronic Mountain Sickness. He considered it a mistake as he then wrote the famous sentence that now lies next to his ashes in the mausoleum at the High Altitude Museum in La Paz. ”The organic systems of human beings and all other species tend to adapt to any environmental change and circumstance within an optimal period of time, and never tend towards regression which would inevitably lead to death”.
