Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (PoTS) & Vasovagal Syncope & Nutritional Therapy
Postural tachycardia syndrome (PoTS) is an abnormal increase in heart rate that occurs after sitting up or standing. PoTS stands for ‘postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome’. It is most common in girls and women aged 15 to 50.
Typical symptoms of PoTS include dizziness or light-headedness, fainting, brain fog, heart palpitations, shaking and sweating, weakness and fatigue, headaches, poor sleep, chest pain, feeling sick and shortness of breath.
PoTS can be an extremely disabling condition and often there is little that can be done with medicine.
Vasovagal syncope occurs when you faint because your body overreacts to certain triggers, such as the sight of blood or extreme emotional distress. It may also be called neurocardiogenic syncope. The symptoms are very much the same as with PoTS.
This webinar focuses on the proactive actions that those with PoTS and or Vasovagal Syncope can engage in to reduce the symptoms and manage their condition with targeted nutritional therapy.
