Improving Vagal Tone For Better Mental And Emotional Health

Reverse Brain Disorders Summit

<h6>David Jockers, DNM, DC, MS</h6>
Hey, this is Dr. David Jockers today. And I am talking about how to improve vagal tone for better mental and emotional energy. And so the vagus nerve is cranial nerve 10 and Vagus is actually a Latin word for wandering. And that's because this nerve actually travels from the brainstem all the way down into our major organ system, our viscera. So it has a lot of different functions. It helps suppress inflammation via the Cholinergic anti inflammatory pathway. It helps decrease heart rate, so it helps kind of like a break on the heart rate helps improve the tone of the vascular system. So the tone would be kind of the muscular activity, its ability to be elastic to you know, increase and decrease blood pressure in general, it has more of a parasympathetic tone to it. The vagus nerve, it's part of the parasympathetic nervous system. I'm gonna talk a lot more about what that means. But basically it helps relax the blood vessels more so than constrict them and it helps increase gastric juices.
