Sign up for our first “Metabolic Harmony Webinar” to learn all about Vagal Nerve Stimulation, Heart Rate Variability and more on Wednesday, January 8th, 2025 at 9am PST but register first with our link- just ask me!  

The vagus nerve and its function, vagal tone, are key elements in understanding health, performance, and longevity. 

Improving vagal tone enhances the function of multiple body systems, leading to various health benefits:

  • Stress Management: A robust vagus nerve helps lower cortisol, enhancing resilience to stress and reducing the risk of stress-related conditions like high blood pressure and insulin resistance.

  • Reduced Inflammation: The vagus nerve activates the anti-inflammatory reflex, reducing chronic inflammation linked to diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and autoimmune conditions.

  • Metabolic Health: Healthy vagal tone supports glucose and fat metabolism, helping with weight management and reducing metabolic issues.

  • Mental Health: High vagal tone is linked to emotional resilience, reduced anxiety, and better mood by regulating brain neurotransmitters.

  • Cardiovascular Health: It lowers heart rate, improves heart rate variability (HRV), and reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

  • Recovery and Performance: For athletes, improved vagal tone supports quicker recovery, better oxygen utilization, and enhanced sleep.

Impact on Fat Loss, Performance, and Longevity:
  • Fat Loss: Improves metabolism and controls stress hormones.

  • Performance: Boosts recovery, endurance, and efficiency.

  • Longevity: Reduces inflammation and improves cardiovascular health.

Improvement Strategies:
  • Measure: Use HRV and resting heart rate.

  • Improve: Practice breathing exercises, yoga, meditation, cold exposure, and use devices like Neuvana Life for vagus nerve stimulation.

Improving vagal tone supports overall health, performance, and longevity.
