This is a list of my favorite products I used every day to help control my POTS syndrome & dysautonomia symptoms. Just wanted to share a little Spoonie support!

I have been on a journey to losing weight/fat for a while now. While not everything has worked, these are the things I did and products I used that have been a major game changer!

I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's 15 years ago. 13 years ago we discovered a small cancerous tumor on my thyroid and had it removed. I eat gluten free, take Armour Thyroid (mostly because I never felt good while on Synthroid/Levothyroxine) and I take supplements that help support my gut, liver and kidneys. I am human-sometimes I fall off the wagon of consistency with supplements, but when I feel my Hashimoto's starting to flare I go back on this regimen and it helps to calm everything down. In addition to supplements I practice hot yoga (the best detox IMO), practice diaphragmatic breathing to calm my Vagus nerve, use a rebounder periodically for lymphatic drainage and I have accupuncture one per month. It's frustrating to have to figure all of this out on my own, and it's not cheap, but there is nothing worse than feeling crappy and nothing better than feeling good so I do what I can to control what I can control

Almost a whole six years ago now I was diagnosed with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, a.k.a POTS. My life was flipped upside down in a matter of a week. Since then, I’ve been doing everything under the sun to help support my body and find a way to manage the symptoms. I’m still fighting, no giving up in this house hold! Here are some of the things that have helped me the most.

Back in high school, my friends and I made emergency kits for our lockers, just in case moments where we needed something right away. That idea stuck with me, so now I’ve created one for my car filled with everyday essentials I know I’ll be grateful for when I need them most! It’s a mix of practical safety items, little comforts, and “you never know” supplies. Things like a first aid kit, jumper cables, a flashlight, and water keep me prepared for emergencies, while snacks, tissues, and extra chargers cover those smaller daily hiccups. I also added seasonal must-haves like a blanket in the winter and sunscreen in the summer. This kit gives me peace of mind whenever I’m on the road, whether it’s for long drives, unexpected delays, or even just lending a hand to someone else. It’s a small way to feel a little more ready for anything.

I enjoy testing new products, but only a select few earn a permanent spot on my ritual list. These are the ones I’ve finished completely and buy again, no hype, just results.

In addition to therapy and psychiatry which I do recommend, here are some coping mechanisms and tools I personally use to help take care of myself the best I can. Remember that progress is often not linear, and a bad day or even long rough patch doesn't negate all of the achievements you've made. You can still be on an upward trend even with those dips. Only expect that you do your best each day- you can't expect more than your best from yourself, and your best can vary dramatically day to day. If your best today was getting out of bed and eating food, but you did it, that's a win. Much love to all of you out there, and I hope these recommendations help. <3
