On this episode of Integrative Wellness Radio, join Dr. Nicole as she sheds light on the topic of POTS or Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, a condition where the heart rate increases on changing your posture, often causing dizziness or fainting. Once considered a very rare condition, Dr. Nicole explains why there is a huge influx of individuals (mostly women) with the disease today and why it has become more and more common. She uncovers some of the environmental, physical, and biochemical factors contributing to POTS. Tune in to learn more about the symptoms and how you can take better care of yourself.
