POTS Things
Things that help me manage POTS symptoms every day.
I was skeptical about the Oura Ring, but it's made a huge difference in how I manage my health and symptoms every day.
Oura Ring: Heart Rate Monitor Etc
This water bottle is strong like plastic, but doesn't taste like plastic - even when you add drink mixes. The inside is coated with a glass finish that's just 60 nanometers thick!
Purist Tasteless Water Bottle
I love that these have extra room in the toes, and they're beige so they're easier to wear in the summer.
Truform Firm Strength Compression Socks
I can't believe I didn't buy a travel cane sooner.
My Foldable Travel Cane
Before I got my Oura Ring, I used a pulse oximeter to prove that my heart rate really was as fast as I said it was.
Pulse Oximeters for Blood Oxygen Saturation
For a long time I didn't have room in my shower for a shower chair, so I used this.
Step Stool/Shower Chair
POTS Supplements
Supplements I take for POTS - mostly minerals like magnesium, potassium, electrolytes.
Supposed to be a super absorbable type of magnesium.
Liposomal Magnesium Bisglycinate Chelate
Added ANOTHER kind of magnesium to my routine - magnesium lotion!
Life-Flo Magnesium Lotion
I add a few of these to my LMNT to get more trace minerals in my diet.
Trace Mineral Drops
Epsom salt for detoxing, increasing magnesium levels, and reducing herx reactions.
Equate Epsom Salt, Magnesium Sulfate, 128 oz (8lb), Unscented
I also add some Potassium powder to my LMNT, because my HTMA test showed my levels were low.
Potassium Chloride Powder
I take L-Threonate magnesium because it crosses the blood brain barrie and also has less of a laxative effect.
Magnesium L-Threonate
I drinks multiple LMNT Unflavored packets a day, and have for a long time now. I've tried other electrolyte mixes, but I always come back to this one because I can actually feel the difference.
LMNT Electrolytes
I did a bunch of research to find salt that wasn't contaminated with heavy metals.
