🫀 7. Know your warning signs
Lightheadedness, vision changes, or chest tightness = sit or lie down immediately. Listening to your body prevents full crashes.

😴 6. Prioritize rest
POTS brains + bodies work harder just to exist. Rest is not laziness — it’s treatment. Schedule downtime like you would any other need.

🧘 5. Gentle movement > none
Recumbent or seated exercise (yoga, resistance bands, cycling) can improve circulation without triggering crashes. Start small.

🍽 4. Eat smaller meals
Large meals can trigger blood pooling in the gut. Stick to 5–6 smaller meals/snacks throughout the day for steadier energy.

💧 3. Salt + water = stability
Hydrate with electrolytes, not just plain water. Pairing fluids with sodium helps your body actually keep the hydration.

🪑 2. Sit smart
Avoid standing still for long periods. If you can, perch on a stool, shift your weight, or cross your legs to help blood return to your heart.

🧦 1. Compression gear
Compression socks (20–30 mmHg) or leggings help keep blood from pooling in your legs, which means less dizziness when standing.

🥗 5. Don’t fear “easy” foods
Low energy? Shelf-stable and pre-prepped items are still real nutrition.
💡 Examples:
• Canned chicken or salmon
• Microwave rice cups
• Frozen veggies
• Nut butters

🍽 3. Small, frequent meals
Large meals can trigger “post-meal crashes” by pulling blood to your gut.
💡 Instead:
• Eat 5–6 smaller meals/snacks
• Keep snacks by your bed for flare days
• Think “just enough to fuel” instead of “stuffed”

💧 2. Hydrate strategically
Plain water alone can sometimes make symptoms worse. Pair fluids with sodium so your body retains it.
💡 Try:
• Electrolyte mixes
• Coconut water + a pinch of salt
• Broth-based soups

🧂 1. Salt is your friend
For many with POTS, sodium is a daily necessity (often 3,000–10,000mg/day — follow your doctor’s guidance).
💡 How to get more:
• Salt your food generously
• Use electrolyte powders or sports drinks
• Keep salty snacks nearby
