INFLUENCE OF VAGAL NERVE STIMULATION ON INFLAMMATION When there is inflammation brewing in the Gut or Periphery, this pro-inflammatory message is communicated to the brain via afferent Vagal fibers. The Brain processes the message and then sends an efferent anti-inflammatory signal down the Vagus Nerve to help Neutralize inflammatory signals in the Gut and Body. This process is known as the 'Inflammatory Reflex'. The mechanisms illustrated and described here are enormously important for regulating Inflammatory Flux and Signaling throughout the body. When the pro-inflammatory signals are too great, or the anti-inflammatory reflex isn't working optimally, inflammation can start burning out of control. Thus contributing to Mental Illness and Chronic Diseases. Because most people have a #LeakyGut and poor #VagalTone their inflammatory reflex is dysfunctional. This increases inflammation in the body and brain.
