Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a disorder of the autonomic nervous system, characterized by excessive increases in heart rate and low blood pressure on standing.

It is also called postural orthostasis, orthostatic intolerance, or OI. The name of this condition puts a lot of emphasis on the two most common symptoms, which are orthostatic intolerance and tachycardia. Orthostasis can be defined as standing up or taking physical exertion with the heart rate increasing significantly compared to how fast your heart beats while laying down or at rest.

Tachycardia is defined as an abnormally increased heart rate. It is also important to note that POTS is not considered a disease by itself, but rather it is an umbrella term that can encompass many different conditions that share these same two common symptoms.

As of now, there is no cure for POTS, but it can be effectively managed. The severity of symptoms among those with POTS varies significantly.

In this beginner's quick start guide, we will discuss the symptoms and management options, followed by a guide on how to make quick and easy healthy recipes.
