Charlie McHenry<p>The Vagus Nerve Industry - Is it really the latest medical breakthrough? Well, maybe…<br>Suddenly, I’ve been seeing ads in my feed for a variety of ‘vagus nerve stimulation’ devices. Maybe you have too. Having a background in health care, I’m naturally skeptical of these kinds of highly promoted breakthrough remedies, especially when they are touted as cure-alls for a variety of ills. The Vagus Nerve, one of the seven major nerves, carries the bulk of the parasympathetic nervous system messaging from internal organs to the brain - and from the brain to internal organs. It is definitely way important to a properly functioning body - and potentially to our immune system.
