Doctor’s warning for people who feel dizzy in the morning – it can be ‘profound’ problem
Doctor Nathan Keiser has explained why you may be feeling dizzy when you get out of bed in the morning, and the ‘profound’ problem that could be causing the unpleasant symptom
A doctor has warned you may be suffering from a “profound” problem if you feel dizzy in the morning.
TikTok doctor Nathan Keiser explained what to do if you notice this symptom, as he explained your brain may be struggling to receive the right amount of oxygen. In a post, Dr Keiser revealed what the effects of a dizzy feeling could be and how best to treat it.
Dr Keiser suggests those who experience this feeling when they wake up should seek out medical help should they notice it on a consistent basis, while also explaining why this might be occurring.
@dockeiser Are you tired of waking up each morning feeling dizzy and unsteady? You’re not alone. But there’s more to it than just feeling off-balance. According to Peters’ groundbreaking 2011 paper on the ‘selfish brain theory,’ our bodies prioritize the brain above everything else. The brain requires an uninterrupted supply of oxygen and glucose to function optimally. So, if you’re experiencing reduced blood flow to your head, it’s a clear sign that something significant may be amiss. Don’t overlook the importance of addressing these symptoms. Explore the science behind our body’s fascinating self-preservation instinct and discover practical steps to regain your balance and vitality.
Dr Keiser has since suggested it could be a “profound” problem and should be checked. He added: “So if you’re symptomatically experiencing that you’re not getting enough blood flow to your head, there’s a likelihood that something profound is probably failing, because that [the brain] is what we prioritise the most.”
For those who feel dizzy when they stand up or get out of bed, the NHS recommends taking a slower approach in standing and to avoid getting up quickly. They also suggest not standing or sitting still for long periods of time. They also suggested avoiding excessive alcohol, large meals and overheating.
