We recently surveyed Vitassium FastChews consumers to see how they use the product and how well it works for them—and the results are pretty exciting! These survey results highlight the role FastChews can play in managing symptoms for people with various types of dysautonomia, with a majority of users reporting quick and meaningful relief. Learn more and order a sample pack at the link in our bio.
ID: 71% of consumers say their dysautonomia symptoms improve in 15 minutes or less after taking Vitassium FastChews, based on an internal survey of 645 Vitassium consumers, conducted January 2025. Because FastChews are chewed instead of swallowed, the ingredients are absorbed through the mouth and can start working within minutes.
67% of Vitassium FastChews consumers say FastChews reduce their dysautonomia symptoms by at least 25%. The most commonly reported symptoms to improve include lightheadedness, presyncope, and tachycardia.
[Vitassium FastChews] are so convenient and helpful for almost immediate relief when I’m having a flare or sudden bout of dizziness, tachycardia, or palpitations.
[They] provide a noticeable improvement in my symptoms,
and it is kind of shocking how
quick and helpful they are!

We recently had the privilege to hear from the Vitassium community about how our products have impacted you. It's stories like these that truly drive us, especially on days when we're struggling with our own POTS symptoms. 💙 #vitassium #autonomicnervoussystem #autonomicdysfunction #orthostaticintolerance #orthostatichypotension #dysautonomiawarrior #dysautonomiaawareness #dysautonomia #posturalorthostatictachycardiasyndrome #potsie #pots #ehlersdanlos #ehlersdanlossyndrome #hypermobilityspectrumdisorder #hypermobileeds #chronicillness #chronicillnesses #chronicillnesslife #chronicillnesswarrior #chronicillnessawareness #hypermobileehlersdanlossyndrome #longcovid #longcovidawareness #longcovidrecovery #hypermobilitysyndrome
May 12 is International ME Awareness Day. Myalgic encephalomyelitis (commonly referred to as ME/CFS) and orthostatic intolerance, especially postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and orthostatic hypotension, are common comorbidities. Research and anecdotal evidence suggests that managing symptoms of OI can decrease the overall symptom burden for patients with ME. 🎗️ #vitassium #mecfsawareness #mecfswarrior #mecfs #longcovidrecovery #longcovidawareness #longcovid #chronicillnessawareness #chronicillnesswarrior #chronicillnesslife #chronicillnesses #chronicillness #autonomicnervoussystem #autonomicdysfunction #orthostaticintolerance #orthostatichypotension #dysautonomiaawareness #dysautonomiawarrior #dysautonomia #posturalorthostatictachycardiasyndrome #potsie #pots #pwme
Although hypermobility is a hallmark of hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, people with hEDS can experience a wide array of symptoms ranging in severity that affect the entire body.

Defecation syncope can be a symptom of Dysautonomia! DS is a form of fainting triggered by the Valsalva maneuver during bowel movements.
The Valsalva maneuver is a breathing technique used to slow down heart rate (you unconsciously perform the Valsalva maneuver when you are bearing down during a bowel movement). It increases chest pressure and reduces blood flow to the heart. Blood pressure falls rapidly which leads to a decrease in blood flow to the brain. This response can be exacerbated by dysautonomia/POTS, which can lead to lightheadedness, dizziness, and fainting.

Vitassium has and always will be shaped by you — dysautonomia patients, caregivers, and healthcare providers.
With that in mind, we would love for you to take our 2026 Vitassium Community Survey. It should only take you about 10 minutes, but it will help us improve our products, education, and advocacy efforts for the foreseeable future.
As a thank you, we will randomly select 10 participants to receive a $25 Amazon gift card after the survey closes on Wednesday, April 15.
As a small team of people who have dysautonomia ourselves or love someone who does, we're incredibly grateful to support you and your loved ones. Thank you for taking the time and energy to help us further our mission. 💙 #pots #potsie #posturalorthostatictachycardiasyndrome #dysautonomia #dysautonomiaawareness #dysautonomiawarrior #vitassium #mecfsawareness #mecfswarrior #mecfs #longcovidrecovery #longcovidawareness #longcovid #hypermobileehlersdanlossyndrome #autonomicnervoussystem #autonomicdysfunction #orthostaticintolerance #orthostatichypotension #ehlersdanlos #ehlersdanlossyndrome #hypermobilityspectrumdisorder #hypermobileeds #pwme #chronicillnessawareness #chronicillnesswarrior #chronicillnesslife #chronicillnesses #chronicillness #hypermobilitysyndrome
