In this episode, we explore the unique genetic evolution that allows Tibetans to thrive where oxygen levels are thin, reshaping their blood physiology in ways that defy traditional biology. Join us as we uncover how generations of life above the clouds have transformed Tibetan blood levels, offering insights into human resilience, adaptation, and what we’re still learning about survival in extreme environments.</p>]]></description>
