RE: What happend in Galyat, Didn't Stay in Galyat
Not boring, my dear! Thank you very much. You reminded me that I also experienced something similar years ago in the Andes. The locals chewed coca leaves to compensate for this deficiency by increasing blood flow and oxygen uptake...
It never occurred to me that there could be such extreme differences within one country...
I experienced episodes of hypoxia throughout my visit to SKARDU. My family didn't feel it that much. Huzaifa explained the physiology of this phenomenon quite well.
will also blame my sedentary lifestyle for this aspect. My kids hiked like they were born there... This highlights the importance of physical activity! The kids are used to running around and being physically active more than us elders.
I was a good runner before kids. Now I can't even do a brisk walk. 🥲
I hope they continue to do that even when they get older. Of course I'm not in the shoes of any parent out there but it's infuriating for me when I see 90% of parents around me instilling the dopamine rush into their kids by handing them over mobile phones so that their kids don't disturb them. Doing this will haunt the parents forever. The dopamine that is being released due to screen exposure is so terrifying and the kids should be getting it through physical activities instead of cartoons on YouTube.
Biology is fascinating...
We have second-highest peak of the world, forests, rivers, plateus, deserts and a sea. We are too diverse. 😀
