 The further you move away from sea level up into higher altitudes, the '''lower''' the air pressure is. The body has two main problems with high altitude and the corresponding lower air pressure:
-* Air at lower pressure has less oxygen per lungful. Your body adjusts to this by making more red blood cells to carry oxygen more efficiently. Most of the cell-building happens while you sleep; however, the process can take days and in the meanwhile, you may be ill.
+* Air at lower pressure has less oxygen per lungful. Your body adjusts to this by making more red blood cells to carry oxygen more efficiently. However, this  process  takes  more than a week , and in the meanwhile, you may be ill.
 * At lower air pressure, water evaporates faster. This can lead to dehydration.

Products include clothing (sweaters, scarves, dresses, baby clothes, etc.), accessories (bags, headbands, hats, gloves) and home goods (textiles, stuffed animals, wall hangings). Seventy percent of profits go directly to the producers. This means the prices are slightly higher than in the tourist markets, but both the production and materials are of higher quality. Plus, the money helps support the producers' families and provide things like basic business classes to the producers. Shopping at AYNIART is a great way to buy your souvenirs and support the local culture at the same time!</buy>

 The indigenous women at '''El Centro Bartolome de Las Casas''' have a store in which they sell homemade handicrafts and weavings. You can often watch them work, though they often don't speak Spanish, and rarely speak a word of English. It's located a few blocks from the plaza on Avenida Tullumayu.
