Lifestyle Medicine Approach to Managing POTS 

Welcome to another episode of Flip Your Script, a vodcast by the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, hosted by ACLM President Dr. Padmaja Patel. In each episode, we explore five key takeaways on how lifestyle medicine is helping each guest reimagine the future of healthcare.


This episode, “Lifestyle Medicine Approach to Managing POTS" features Dr. Jennifer Shalz, Medical Director of St. Luke’s Health System Lifestyle Medicine Department, and Molly Lynn, Nurse Practitioner and lifestyle medicine specialist. Together, they share how St. Luke’s is transforming care for patients with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) through a multidisciplinary, lifestyle-first model.


Dr. Shalz and Molly discuss how this condition—often affecting young women and triggered by viral illness—has increased in prevalence since the COVID-19 pandemic. They outline how their team designed a structured 3–6 month intervention that empowers patients to manage symptoms through evidence-based lifestyle behaviors, from fluid and salt intake to graded physical activity, sleep, and stress management.


Through this conversation, you’ll hear how St. Luke’s is redefining chronic condition management by combining lifestyle medicine principles with collaborative care pathways, and why validation, education, and patient empowerment are essential to improving quality of life for those living with POTS.


If you’re interested in how lifestyle medicine can support complex, chronic conditions through personalized, integrative strategies—this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

Cleared for Takeoff: Navigating Lifestyle Change and Resilience

Welcome to another episode of Flip Your Script, a vodcast by the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, hosted by ACLM President Dr. Padmaja Patel. In each episode, we explore five key takeaways on how lifestyle medicine is helping each guest reimagine the future of healthcare.


This episode, "Cleared for Takeoff: Navigating Lifestyle Change and Resilience," features Meryl Fury, MS, RN, and Jeff Nelson. Meryl is the president and CEO of the Plant-Based Nutrition Movement, a public health nurse with over 30 years of experience, and a Food for Life instructor. Her husband, Jeff, is a recreational pilot and entrepreneur who, after a life-altering heart attack in 2023, transformed his health through lifestyle changes and was back to flying within nine months.


The conversation explores how a personal health crisis led to a broader mission to educate the piloting community, a group that has a lot to lose—including their career—if their health fails. Jeff shares his inspiring journey from being "invincible" to embracing a plant-based diet, thanks to Meryl's guidance. Meryl discusses the moment she realized the need to bring lifestyle medicine education to pilots after a close friend passed away from a heart attack, sparking a new initiative to help prevent similar tragedies within their tight-knit community.


If you're ready to learn how lifestyle medicine can be a powerful motivator for change and how to bring this critical message to at-risk professional groups, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
