Low stomach acid might be ruining your ferritin levels—and triggering POTS symptoms.

Without proper acidity in the stomach, your body can’t absorb iron in the small intestine. Low ferritin makes it harder to pump blood volume to your brain, causing your heart rate to spike.

Common culprits that lower stomach acid include:
🔹 Alcohol use
🔹 Zinc deficiency
🔹 Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs)

Fixing your stomach pH is critical to restoring your iron levels and keeping symptoms in check!

Still dealing with brain fog, fatigue, or weight issues despite a "normal" TSH? 🧪

Nearly 50% of people on thyroid hormone replacement still suffer from symptoms. Dr. Autoimmune breaks down why optimal TSH is actually between 1.0–2.5, how 90% of high TSH cases stem from Hashimoto's, and why gut health plays a crucial role.

Is POTS actually a heart condition, or a nervous system issue? 🧠⚡

Because POTS is a syndrome, its root causes are often connected to systemic inflammation and nervous system dysfunction. Your heart is simply responding to signals from your brain.

To find real, lasting solutions, you have to look past symptom suppression and uncover the true root cause through proper testing.
