Symptom check-in

POTS: I had dizziness every time I stood up today and my heart rate jumped fast - I wanted something salty and high-protein today, and deli turkey plus cottage cheese did the job.

Vestibular migraine: I had no vestibular migraine symptoms today - no vertigo, no nausea, and no light sensitivity.

Lupus: I had no rash, no body aches, no fever, and no nausea from my anti-rejection meds today.

Condition

Works?

Why

POTS

Yes

Salty protein is the easiest win; this is high-sodium without needing extra effort

Vestibular migraine

Conditionally

Tomatoes can trigger some people; everything seasoning can be garlicky; adjust if sensitive

Lupus

Mostly

High protein, minimal prep; for transplant context, choose pasteurized dairy and reputable deli meat
