I know they said that for the indigenous Sherpa people who live at those altitudes, they have evolved over time to deal with the atmosphere, but for the rest of us, being at that altitude for too long can be taxing on the health.
the people who live at higher elevations have higher hematocrit levels naturally . they need to and they adapt.. people who live at low elevation and come up to higher elevation experience health problems not because their hematocrit suddenly elevates, its because its too low to begin with. high rbc/hematocrit is essential . its also a performance advantage. its not a negative side effect of AAS usage, its a positive one.


I live at 7,300 ft elevation (previously lived at 9300 feet for most my life). which is way above sea level. my hematocrit is naturally high.
its probably 80 degrees where you live . but where I live its currently 12 degrees, its a blizzard, the major highway has closed, and my kids school has been cancelled .. fun stuff . but hey I'm naturally acclimated to high hematocrit levels . I bet I could run a sub 6 minute mile at sea level !
