Dysautonomia, Part 1 March 8, 2016 Dysautonomia, a condition that afflicts millions of Americans with diverse debilitating symptoms like fainting, light-headedness, episodes of brain fog, heart-racing, digestive problems, abnormal sweating, hives, exercise intolerance and anxiety. Lauren Stiles, co-founder and President of Dysautonomia International, and herself a sufferer of dysautonomia, shares the latest research and therapeutic options—both natural and pharmaceutical—for treating dysautonomia.

What causes it? What is POTS? What dietary adjustments seem to work best for dysautonomia? Can certain exercises help? What are some of the drug fixes? How might dysautonomia be related to auto-immunity? Is it hereditary? Is there a vaccine link to the onset of dysautonomia as has sometimes been reported? Is it common for sufferers of dysautonomia to have mitral valve prolapse? Is CFS a form of dysautonomia? Click HERE for part 2.
