ONE CONCEPT INCLUDED IN THE CONFERENCE “Extraordinary Adaptation to Chronic Hypoxia and Life at High altitude”<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

The low incidence of Asthma patients at high altitude. Particularly those that have allergen induced asthma to polen and other antigens. As referred by the head of the Intensive Care Unit at the Hospital Obrero #1 in La Paz, Bolivia, the social security largest hospital, in over 35 years of practice not one case of asthma crisis was treated (Intensivist Dr. Freddy Sandi).<\/p>\n

Conference on “Extraordinary Adaptation to Chronic Hypoxia” at the St. John’s Medical College, where Thuppil Venkatesh is an honorary professor of Biochemistry. In this same top standing medical college of India, Prof. Dr. Gustavo Zubieta-Castillo (Sr) many years back had been Felicitated and later honored as the “Mountain Guru<\/a>” by the NRCLP.<\/p>\n

Prof. Dr. Gustavo Zubieta-Castillo<\/a> passed away on Sept 17, 2015. He was the creator of completely different concepts about adaptation and formed a school of thought that Gustavo Jr and Natalia (his grand-daughter) now follow.<\/p>\n

We also visited Prof. Thuppil Venkatesh’s National Referral Center for Lead \u00a0Projects in India. It is located at St. John’s Medical College in their new large offices.<\/p>\n
