It’s happened to all of us at one point. We’ll be sitting down or laying down and decide to get up, and then, suddenly, we feel light-headed, dizzy, or get a headache.
Medically, this is known as Orthostatic Hypotension, but that’s a mouthful so let’s break it down in layman’s terms…

And there’s one major culprit that could be leading to more dizzy spells and potentially even larger complications.
Here’s Dr Juan, our founder and a renowned cardiologist, talking about how to avoid the dizzy spells, and what serious dizzy spells might mean for your health:
Thanks Dr. Juan! Let’s make sure to stay hydrated so we can be steady on our feet.
And let’s get healthier, together.
