Nootropics/herbs for increased brain blood flow in POTS/Lyme patient?
#3
I will second the Piracetam but I have long suspected that it lowers my blood pressure. I'm not diagnosed with POTS but since I can remember I always get dizzy standing up, never to the point of fainting but occasionally having to lean against a wall for stability until my vision comes back. It can get real bad. Piracetam seems to make this problem slightly worse although I don't consider the side effect debilitating enough to not take it. Piracetam is one of my favorite Nootropics for brain function, reducing brain fog etc. I find increasing salt and water consumption helps with blood pressure alot, also standing up slowly.

It is interesting to note that there are no studies indicating Piracetam lowers blood pressure, if anything some studies show an increase so you may not experience a drop at all.

Other Nootropics I've found particularly helpful for brain fog are NAC and Phenylpiracetam. Idk if some of your symptoms include lethargy but if they do Phenylpiracetam has a nice stimulating quality.
