According to Wilderness & Environmental Medicine, "20–90% of acclimatized travelers ascending to elevations above 7,500 feet will experience a high altitude headache."
Using supplemental oxygen can help lessen the symptoms of altitude sickness caused by the deprivation of oxygen to the body.
SWAG oxygen is supplemental canned oxygen that is 95% pure oxygen (the air we breathe is 21% oxygen). It is all-natural and safe. Each portable oxygen can is 32 ounces and contains approximately 12 liters (volume) of 95% pure oxygen. Our product consists of up to 250 inhalations.

Traveling to high altitude locations such as Colorado, that are above 5,000 feet above sea level, can result in lower oxygen levels in the body. This lack of oxygen can cause altitude sickness because as we ascend, the air around us becomes thinner and less oxygenated.
In high altitude locations, the barometric pressure causes air molecules to expand and contains fewer oxygen molecules. It takes time for your body to adjust to the altitude change. Altitude sickness can cause shortness of breath, weakness, dizziness and lack of mental focus.
According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Wilderness Medical Society, University of California San Fransisco (UCSF), EMS World and other reputable sources, giving supplemental oxygen is a recommended remedy for the symptoms of high altitude sickness.
