Tibet is a plateau area, where the air pressure and oxygen are relatively thin. The oxygen content in the air is insufficient, and the amount of oxygen molecules inhaled by the human body is small, which will cause a series of hypoxic reactions in the human body.
Rhodiola rosea is a herbaceous plant that grows in harsh environments. It has strong vitality, can replenish qi, activate blood circulation, and relieve asthma. Therefore, some people take Rhodiola Rosea to relieve altitude sickness before going to Tibet. Everyone's physical condition is different. Altitude sickness will not occur when going to plateau areas, so some people do not need to take it.
