The Vagus Nerve Solution to Inflammation with Dr. Habib

The vagus nerve is a key piece to regulating inflammation levels in the body. In this episode I talk with Dr. Habib, a vagus nerve expert and author of the book, Activate Your Vagus Nerve: Unleash Your Body's Natural Ability to Heal. We discuss the role of the vagus nerve in regulating hormone signaling, the immune system and inflammatory response in the body, motility in our gut (how quickly food passes through your GI tract) and more. Tune in to learn about the role of the vagus nerve and simple ways you can support vagal tone with both daily routines and vagus nerve therapies.

A few things we chat about in this episode 👇👇👇

  1. What is the vagus nerve and vagal tone? 
  • Why might someone have low vagal tone? Signs and symptoms of low vagal tone?
  • The relationship between Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and vagal tone
  • How vagal tone influences the inflammatory response
  • Why the brain to immune system communication is so critical to controlling inflammation
  • The relationship between vagal tone and blood glucose control, thyroid and sex hormone regulation
