The Himalayan Rescue Association and Musa Masala Present the Pocket-size, Wallet-friendly, Altitude Tips Card
Musa Masala is very excited to have created, along with the Himalayan Rescue Association, a new version of the altitude tips card that we have been providing to the HRA clinics since 2018.
Below you’ll find an introduction from Dr. Sanjiv Bhandari to the HRA, and from Dr. Nishant Joshi Njo, on how he came to work with the HRA. A special part of this is a great interview about working at Everest ER in 2024 — special for all you Everest fans. Jam Jam!

Nutrition at High Altitude: Ariadna Lucero
Please welcome Ariadna Lucero, who we met through our friends at Extreme Medicine, the medical providers at Mt Aconcagua. Ariadna’s interest in the gastrointestinal issues of people living at higher altitudes or with difficult water supply systems links in with our patient population at the Wongchhu Sherpa Memorial Hospital, so we were excited to talk to her about her nutrition research. We’re honored she did this interview with us and hope to work together in the future as she is doing such important work.
