25. Could this ONE Nerve be the Hidden Key to Unlock your Total Body Healing?

WOW, this episode is packed full of root-cause related
information that I hope will inspire you. I brought Dr. Navaz
Habib to talk about this one specific nerve that controls and
regulates so many functions of the body.


If you or someone you love suffers with IBS, obesity and weight
gain, chronic fatigue, depression irregular heartbeat, ulcers,
weight loss, gastroparesis, chronic inflammation, epilepsy, high
blood pressure, diabetes, trouble urinating, fertility problems,
sexual pleasure, anxiety, heart disease cancer, poor circulation,
leaky gut, Alzheimer's, memory and mood issues, migraines
headaches, fibromyalgia, tinnitus, addictions, or any autoimmune
conditions… I highly recommend listening to this episode about
our vagus nerve.


(Yes, THAT many manifestations + more) 


The sheer amount of diseases and symptoms in the parts of this
body that this nerve innervates is a testament to how important
it is to maintain your health. Stick around for this entire
episode to learn how this is truly the root of so many of our
issues and one of the biggest underutilized discussions and
Western medicine while I talk to Dr. Navaz Habib about how we can
stimulate our Vagus nerve to ensure that this nerve is
functioning optimally.

In this episode:


How living in fight or flight hurts your brain and body

Where “sympathetic” 24/7 is NOT a good thing

How our vagus nerve connects with our immune system in riding
our body of toxins

Learn how easy it is to improve your vagal tone with simple
exercises



Vagus Nerve


The function that it imparts is extensive.


In the brain itself, it helps control anxiety and mood.

In the gut, it increases stomach acidity, gut flow/motility
and other digestive enzyme production.



Low stomach acid is a major source of gut-related health
conditions so an underactive vagus nerve is correlated to the
root cause of many health conditions.



In the heart, it controls heart rate variability, heart rate
and blood pressure.

In the pancreas it controls blood sugar balance and digestive
enzymes.

In the liver it controls bile production and detoxification
through hepatic phase 1 and phase 2 conjugation.

In the gallbladder it controls bile release to help break
down fats.

In the kidneys, it promotes general function including water
balance, glucose control and sodium excretion which helps control
blood pressure.

In the bladder it controls voiding of urine.

In the spleen it helps to reduce inflammation.

In the sex organs it helps to control fertility and sexual
pleasure including orgasms.

In the mouth and tongue, it helps to control ability to taste
and saliva production through salivary gland control.

In the eyes, it activates tear production through the
lacrimal glands.



Vagus nerve stimulation has the potential to help those suffering
from various health conditions, including but certainly not
limited to anxiety disorders, heart disease, some forms of
cancer, poor circulation, leaky gut syndrome, alzheimer’s, memory
and mood disorders, migraines and headaches, fibromyalgia,
obesity, tinnitus, addiction, autism and autoimmune
conditions. 


Dr. Habib’s book “Activate Your Vagus Nerve” is a simple to
follow guide to help you identify and address a major missing
piece in patients dealing with chronic health concerns such as
anxiety and depression.


Here are the top 10 related disorders:
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) Obesity and weight gain Chronic
fatigue Depression Irregular heartbeat; too slow or fast 
Ulcers, Stomach acid issues and/or H. pylori Weight loss
Gastroparesis Chronic inflammation  Epilepsy

But how does this pertain to my hormones?


In the immune system we have 70% of our immune cells by volume
located in the lining of the gut in what's called “gut associated
lymphoid tissue”. What happens is we either have foods that can
trigger leaky gut, aka intestinal hyperpermeability, or we have
bacteria that are backed up or or dysbiotic within an hour but
are going to break down the gut lining and trigger an immune
response. When that happens, we are overburdening our liver with
toxins that need to be immediately or as quickly as possible
eliminated from our body, and we're increasing toxic burden. The
liver plays a major role in control of nearly everything, all of
the hormones, all of the blood sugar balance, all of the things
that come into the body essentially need to go through the liver
first and need to be controlled through the liver.

Quotes


“Many chronic illnesses are multifactorial, there is not a single
positive event with symptoms and signs that happen afterwards.
Finding a specific diagnosis is the reason why the ICD-10 codes
are now up to 20,000. It’s like if we say, “Okay you've got acid
reflux, we’ll give you a proton pump inhibitor.” What you're
doing is saying that the only way that this possibly could have
happened is because you have too much stomach acid. You're not
asking the question “why is there too much stomach acid?” [22:55]


“When going to a parasympathetic state what's actually happening
is our blood flow increases to the prefrontal cortex or ability
to learn and think and be in that conscious state. By being told
to not question something we're actually saying stop using your
prefrontal cortex sending the blood just to the lizard brain to
the survival centers would put you in your sympathetic zone all
the time.” [27:40]


“We cannot recover when we're under stress, where you send blood
flow is where you send function. If we are under stress and under
that sympathetic system, blood flows to the muscles of the arms
and the legs so we can either run away or fight against whatever
the threat is that we feel is coming towards us.” [34:30]


“70 to 80% of us are in sympathetic mode 70 to 80% of the time
and that's where the problem lies. It's supposed to be almost the
exact opposite that we should only be in sympathetic mode about
10 to 30% of the time at absolute maximum.” [36:25]
