Altitude sickness is no joke, so whether you're climbing up a mountain or heading out of town for a trip, be sure you're prepared. If you're looking for the best supplements for altitude sickness, you've come to the right place.
Altitude sickness is a result of hypoxia, or lower oxygen levels, having negative physiological effects on your body. An altitude adjustment supplement can help relieve the symptoms of altitude sickness and make high altitude adjustments easier.
Our Zaca chewables are popular used as an altitude adjustment supplement throughout Colorado, and many customer take them on high altitude journeys around the world like Peru. Let's dive into the details below on how Zaca is the ultimate altitude adjustment supplement.
Zaca was created by two brothers who wanted a more natural alternative to medications for an active lifestyle filled with stressors, altitude being one of them. They also wanted a portable product that tasted good. The result? Zaca's recovery chewables, which are formulated with effective herbal remedies for altitude. And they taste great!
Zaca chewables are a science-backed formulated blend of antioxidants, herbs and amino acids designed to help your body feel better faster. They are a great way to enhance electrolytes and water absorption lost when dehydrated and help your body recover — all without the sugar crash of most sports drinks.
Zaca is a medication-free way to combat the unpleasant effects of high altitude conditions.
The formula by Zaca is designed with three ingredients that have science-backed research on altitude sickness, so you can stay healthy and enjoy your time in the mountains. Just like altitude adjustment pills, Zaca just comes in an easy-to-use chewable form.
As an altitude adjustment supplement, let's look at the altitude adjustment research behind these three ingredients -- glutathione, glutamine, and dihydromyricetin (DHM).
The altitude-specific science behind each ingredient:
The combination of these three ingredients -- glutathione, glutamine, and dihydromyricetin (DHM) -- make Zaca a powerful altitude adjustment supplement.
As mentioned, Zaca includes glutathione, glutamine, and dihydromyricetin (DHM), along with an additional ingredient that comes from Mexico called prickly pear. Those 4 key ingredients make up Zaca as an effective supplement for so many usages, including altitude adjustment.
Zaca chewables are easy to carry and very easy to use.
Take the chewables one to two days leading up to your high altitude trip, 2 chewables per day. Then take 4 chewables the day of your flight and the first few days on your high altitude trip or climb. If you are staying at high altitude for longer periods of time or not feeling any effects from the altitude, 2 chewables a day is a sufficient amount to sustain.
This will keep your body from getting dehydrated or lacking essential nutrients at higher altitudes.
