Dealing with Long Covid for the second time. Very few doctors are talking about the effects of Covid on the vagal nerve in people, myself included. After getting an Apple Watch I’ve decoded what my body is telling with my low HRV, high sleeping heart rate, the anxiety I never had before. These types of videos are priceless to those of us who are charting our own journey back to health. Thank you, Dr. Berg.❤
@@quickpstuts412 Thanks for asking🙂 I have more good days then bad days now. Just went through a stressful move and I feel like that set me back some. Just happy to wake up every morning!
@@zuzupetals6025 relatable. I just know that my issue is stressed based as well. So I’m just working hard to calm my nervous system down. The breathing, yoga and meditation is helping a lot.
I think: 1- Life is the product of chemical reactions or combinations/decombinations. Chemicals that mix to create life are called biological chemicals. 2- Genes ascertain the way they mix, and, since, genes are also made from some of these chemicals, these biochemicals can also ascertain and alter the makeup of genes. 3- All organs are operated via the nervous system, so the nervous system operates all organs via these biochemicals. 4- The nervous system is itself made up of and modulated/regulated by chemicals, so these biochemicals can, in turn, affect the nervous system. i- The brain has the central nervous system for information or thought processing, learning, strategizing and executing. ii- The brain leverages the sympathetic nervous system for bodily action or sensory and limb modulation. iii- The brain has the parasympathetic nervous system for vital organ modulation. a-The sympathetic nervous system is modulated to meet the demands of the central nervous system. b-The parasympathetic nervous system is modulated to meet the demands of the sympathetic nervous system. c- Pain and comfort are the only stimuli felt by the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.

The species themselves could only undergo moderate changes because they're genetically engineered for those environs. ii- The biochemicals within our body are made from the food and beverage processed by the liver and kidneys, with the help from bile, gall bladder, and pancreas, whereas the breakup and digestion of food takes place in the intestines. iii- The foods and toxins that we consume alter our biochemistry, and this, in turn, can even alter the nervous system. iv- All diseases have their origins in what we eat and drink via our gut, or or breathe via lungs or our skin. a- I think every disease, except for contagious germs, has its origins either in toxins we consume; inadequate or excessive nutrients we consume; or in the improper digestion of these because of stress, physical inactivity or hyper- activity. b- It is quite possible that each of our organs evolved independently, and these organs then got incorporated into our anatomy via symbiotic systems, like any culture of germs or any ecosystem of nourishing, complementing, and predating animals in nature. The mitochondria could have been some ancient bacteria. 6- We know plaque creates cardiovascular diseases. Likewise cancer, tumors, rheumatism, lupus and fibromyalgia can be the deposition of either external toxins ingested by us or internal toxins generated by our own gut, and the fact that these impact the lymphatic system is proof of their toxic nature. 7- Whatever the disease, we first need to get rid of the external or internal toxins via food/beverage ingestion and neutralisation, and eventual excretion or surgical intervention, and then get rid of the genetically altered tissue via surgery, radiation, or a long-term nutritional, nervous and activity cure. 8- Since the vagus nerve modulates our parasympathetic nervous system; all organ cure would have to come via a blend of diet, vagus nerve modulation, toxin excretion, and diseased tissue removal or healing. 9- Vasodilation, constriction, and fluid supply, fluid regulation and fluid excretion is leveraged to transport, regulate and expel all nutrients and toxins. i-Minerals and the nervous system cause this vasodilation and constriction ii- Toxins are the byproducts of digestion, the waste generated by organs, or the injurious products ingested or inhaled by the body. 10- The immune system is modulated by the parasympathetic nervous system and destroys and/or excretes all foreign agents--germs and toxins. i- The immune system is activated, when germs are ingested or inhaled in bulk, but calms down when those are destroyed and excreted/expelled. ii- The immune system goes haywire via the constant seepage of germs into the bloodstream from the gut; the constant ingestion of parasites, germs or toxins from an unhealthy environment; or the constant intake of unhealthy food or even healthy nutrients in excess to generate toxins or unbalancing levels of nutrients a- This is corrected via enemas, fasting, a change of medicinal, food, beverage and ventilation supply chains or via change of environs by moving to another place. b- Omega 3 fatty acids subside inflammation, whereas Omega-6 fatty acids cause inflammation.

Germicid edestroy these microbe cultures, so these have to be continually replenished. iv- Vitamins, minerals, and flavonoids catalyze essential reactions for energy production, free-radical elimination, and hormone production. Some of these are obtained from plants, some from meats, and some from fermented products. v- Proteins Are required for growth, carbohydrates for energy, and fats for energy storage, but, in moderate quantities, these also provide nutrients for essential chemical reactions, so one shouldn't completely take these out of one's diet. vi- The body requires blood rich in oxygen and an efficient transport media. a- Cancers and tumors are a parasympathetic nervous system response to destroy contaminated cells and to generate energy via fermentation when not enough oxygen is received at the cellular levels. The DNA of these cells is altered for destruction or for the anaerobic production of energy, so for reversion to normal cellular function, the toxins have to be removed for the reversion of DNA back to normal, and for sulfur containing essential amino acids to be supplied for the re-alteration of the DNA for normal function(only sulphur containing amino acids can alter DNA), and, finally, either a sufficient waiting period provided for the cancerous cells to self-destruct, or, else, the cancerous tissue has to be excised via surgery, radiation or other means, and also mechanism provided for the excretion or expulsion of this dead-tissue. b- Moderate physical activity can build vascular muscles to the facilitate mineral/nutrient transport and waste expulsion without necessitating a heavy reliance on vasodilation and construction via over stimulation of the endocrine system and without requiring a varied diet for the production of those hormones for endocrine modulation. The endorphins released during exercise calm the parasympathetic nervous system, which in turn calms the sympathetic nervous system, and this calms the central nervous system via the elimination of excess energy, nutrients and waste.
Wonderful Dr. Berg! This is a great explanation of how to support our parasympathetic system - and why it is necessary for our health and well being. Your acupressure tool and stress seminar are wonderful for supporting people - but as you have so many followers it would be great if you would do a five minute - just before sleep video/audio here on youtube to help support people as they are going to sleep. Having worked with breath and formal medication with people for almost fifty years - I have found that just explaining how to do an equal breath - - or a five minute breath relaxation during a person's day is not enough - - even learning breath relaxation in individual and group sessions often is not enough until it becomes a habit as in the keto diet and intermittent fasting - - which is what led me to doing individual tapes for my patients in the eighties and putting a general instructional on youtube years back as people needed "training wheels" until their body and inind got used to the habit - - The apps available today really are not good for real in depth practice and aid - but people are so used to your voice - and trusting you - that a five minute breathing tvideo to use as they go to sleep and another one for use several times during the day - - no huge explanations - just your voice and maybe some light music - - would really be helpful to the many who trust and benefit from your advice! Keep up the wonderful work!!!
Just a quick bit of advice. I had a heavy heatbeat for 15 years and even though it wasn't life threatening it was hard to sleep with my heart pounding all the time. My whole body would move with every heart beat. I did have a bad diet and had gained about 25-30lbs. I won't give you all the details but finally I did a full month of 18/6 intermittent fasting(which was very hard for me to do!) and magically the heavy heartbeat went completely away. My best guess is my Vagus Nerve was being over stimulated which caused me to think it was my heart when it was the nerve the whole time..the IF allowed it to calm down and go back to normal.
Eric Haynes this is a great comment thanks for sharing this! Gives me hope as I’ve been suffering this recently & IF did clam me down. I will continue doing that & also the inversion hang as Lone Wolf Therapy commented right somewhere above your comment. I have sustained a compression spine fracture T8 & that aggravates my overall pain besides this. God bless you. Be well.
OMG! This has been me for the past 12 years. Went to a cardiologist twice and they found nothing. My doc acts clueless about it. Went low carb and started supplementing with magnesium and it's helping. Gonna try IF. Didn't even think that it could be the vagus nerve!
@@quickpstuts412 Yes I was surprised it was the vagus nerve too..the IF is such a radical different way to eat, it really does show that we eat way too often and that it does affect our body in unexpected/undesired ways. Good luck!
When you are very stressed you can get all sorts of problems. I got acid reflux and heart palpitations and fluttering. Dizziness and head aches when standing
Thank you Doctor... most relaxing to stimulate the Vagus nerve by deep breathing- 6 secs in & 6 out.) "You should certainly safeguard your nerves, and force yourself to take time, and not only for prayer and meditation, but for real rest and relaxation." ~ Baha'i Faith, Lights of Guidance
Thank you, Dr Berg. I’d like to add there is some sort of connection between oral antibiotics and mental mood. I’d even go as far as saying they send me into a depression and I’m riddled with physical anxiety symptoms within a few days. I really dread having to take them, but occasionally they are necessary.
Dr Berg you are the best...thank you so much for your explanation how you simplified the different way our body functions God bless you abundantly...appreciated
The *vagus nerve* carries an extensive range of signals from digestive system and organs to the brain and vice versa. It is the tenth cranial nerve, extending from its origin in the brainstem through the neck and the thorax down to the abdomen. It is the secondary "bodily brain" that communicates in concert with the brain to send messages and information about the "extremities" that might need repair. The vegas nerve can control the body in dire health or in coma to keep to keep the organism alive, especially the heart and the brain. It would be logical that the vegas nerve is the last nerve system to conclude before death. So it should be renamed as, *"the god nerve."*
I DID NOT SEE THE LINK BELOW FOR THIS /OUR BOOK. OH I soooo needed this on 8th nerve. I sm justs bout recvovered from what I inadvertently caused to happen !You are not going to believe what happened...I am still dumbfounded. I hsve to.makecdure I have not caused harm which cannot be mitigated easily.
Thank you for explaining My son has complex epilepsy (lennox gastaut). He’s getting the VNS device that stimulates the vagus nerve. Hoping it will work. There’s actually lots of proof it works. It’s been around over 20 years.
Your very generous in your information Dr berg, grateful for that.. and things make sense and explained very simply...those who apply and can see a difference are the witness to the knowledge you share..
I am half way through this video and am already 3xperi3ncing some relief. I experience palpitations several nights week amd generally within an hour of having Allen asleep. Its so scary, each time. I hope and pray the advice in this video will help.. ECG doesn't pick up any irregularities. Seems to be exactly what this video is about. I think I need magnesium support too. Thank you Dr. Berg!
Breathing exercises changed my life! Literally. Controlled breathing + Controlling my Foods, cured me of my Social (mental & emotional) and Physical ailments. I highly recommend Dr. Eric Berg's work. Pay attention & practice daily = WINNING. MGTOW is Bliss. Our Society is Piss.
I agree....since February 2022 I had a sudden medical issue that no doctor could give me any answers! 3 times in the ER within 4 weeks, I'm going on almost 3 months of specialist and still no "REAL" answer to my issue involving the stomach. I've gone through making Google my medical substitute to help with some answers that Doctors couldn't tell me...Then I found this RUclips doctor and everything was making sense! and seems to be fixing my issues.....Just amazing!
@@SeanChristopherMcGee YES!' IT'S JESUS MY BROTHER THEN DR. BERG. IN THAT ORDER BECAUSE THESE DOCTOR'S ARE PRACTICING MEDICINE 💊 THEY TRULY DON'T HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS PLUS I DON'T TRUST THEM NO WAY. ALL THEY EVER WANT IS TO KEEP YOU POPPIN PILLS MAKING MATTERS WORSE INSTEAD OF HITTING THE ROOT CAUSE. I HOPE YOUR BETTER I AM 💕💯🥰🤷♀️
@@SeanChristopherMcGee hey can you please elaborate your problem and your current situation, cause i feel that , there is something wrong with my digestive system, iam not able to digest food from 3 days (completely) ....
I relly like this video, it explains the vagus nerve and the sympathic and parasympathtic nervous system in very simple terms. Straight to the point and no waffle.
Thank you so much for the video. I have an interesting case. I have been having this issue for quite sometime and was clueless how to address or even describe this to my physician. I wake up from sleep almost breathless and needing to regulate breathing manually. Digestie problems occur too. Happens frequently and sometimes multiple times a night. Watching your videos are a great source of information. Thank you! I will try this. Interestingly, I also have PCOS and recently diagnosed with insulin resistence, and am struggling to consistently keep my weight under check. I am gradually cutting down on carbs and leaning towards protein and healthy fat and exercise. I have subscribed to your videos. Thanks again for educating us.
I started to focus on breathing with my stomach while I read more of the comments. Some people were saying that breathing techniques can help tinnitus. After just a few breaths with my stomach, my tinnitus stopped 😳 Thank you for the tip!!!
@@kellikelli4413 watch a baby breathing - their ribs barely move but their stomach swells with each in breath. Copy them - put yr hand over your chest and breathe so your hand does not move ... only your belly shd move. Also the belly-breathing stimulates the organs with the mild pressure. And you calm down. If you observe someone breathing into their chest (esp the upper chest) they are in a constant state of STRESS! You can gauge the emotional state of your children by their breathing signs - if they are breathing upper chest - they need comfort and love - cos they are stressed. ps: Stress is FEAR ! Tho we pretend it is not.
very interesting I have gastro paresis IBS, chronic fatigue syndrome and factor 5 v-lieden. I've done a lot of hospital time and not 1 doctor has ever mentioned any of this except the stimulator. luckily I changed my diet and listen to sleep videos which practices the breathing technique. Thank u for this video. Hope you can educate Gastro doctors one this. I'm starting to have problems with my pancreas maybe this applied during waking hrs can help instead of just before sleeping. wish they were doing studies on this I would volunteer. Thank You
Great info, but there is an important phase missing in the breathing exercise. When you count to four after the exhale and before the inhale the body relaxes more. That phase is missing also in hyperventilation and shallow breathing.
Dr. Berg, would like to see your stress webinar, but the video is not available. Can it be uploaded again, or can you get us to that video some other way? I would like to see acupressure for the vagus nerve. Thanks so much for your straightforward help!
Dr Berg, I have insomnia. I watched this video for a completely different reason, to calm my hiccups. I did the breathing exercise you recommended and woke up an hour later to my wife shaking me awake. THANK YOU. 🙏🤣😂🤣
Who's side is your wife on? I had this problem for many years.... Meditation helps me happily function in my stressful life on 4-6 hours sleep, Jack Kornfield videos helped
I just tested a little high on Magnesium. I was using a LOT internally and topically and didn't think anything of it. I need to ease up a bit but know that I need to supplement. Challenging. Maybe the electrolytes are a good vehicle?
Do a video about how they're laying in bed and such holding a cellphone and stressing certain nerves and muscles, a common one involving chest muscles where they begin thinking its their heart and possibly a heart attack that's developing, and of course while standing or sitting and developing hunchback and other problems.
4GUESTS wow so holding the cell phone while laying down watching these videos can cause you to feel like that? I thought sitting was bad for my back so been laying down to watch videos
I’d like to hear your thoughts on gastroparesis, which is related to the vagus nerve. They say there’s no cure. I wonder if vagus nerve stimulation can cure it or if you have any other ideas
Gary, this helps me with Gastroparesis; Ginger. Star Anise seed - from Indian/Asian grocery shops. To help digest a ‘big’ meal when you feel overwhelmed Quick Eze (Calcium Carbonate 800 mg) is great. And when desperate clean your teeth and swallow the toothpaste. To switch off the Fight or Flight mechanism ‘draw’ circles around the ear with a smooth pen-like device (not the protruding structure) but the top edge of the ear canal, either clockwise or anticlockwise.
I see a PT who specializes in visceral manipulation who stimulated my vagus nerve...suffered with billiary spasms after gallbladder removal....Thank you Dr. Berg for explaining in other videos about the bile salts...im going to purchase them...I take a great digestive enzyme, but sometimes,struggle with that right shoulder pain and right sided neck and head pain...Thank you!!!
Omg yes!! That's what I was looking for when I came across this video. Gastroparesis. Apparently that is linked to a nerve problem with the vagus nerve and PNS. So theoretically you'd think this would help. It's also linked to pots, hypothyroidism and diabetes.
O J google or youtube how to do it and try a few different method see what works best for you you can start using a special cloth set made for Castor Oil pack at health food store, put it on either weckle line across the cloth, lay down and lay it on your lower abdomen, put a very warm hot water bag you can find at drug store, it will wipe you out. Don’t use hot water bag when treat cancer. i personally find shrink wrap works best, you can do it when you go to bed you can also apply and wrap your knees area, that also works very well for me Castor oil also very effective for burn skin when you wrap it.
Just watched something that stated the vagus nerve is also known to be connected to all the 7 charkras inside the body. This should help out for people who wants to have a visual and scientific evidence why things work out the way they do.
Apparently this is what is affecting me. Three trips to ER in the last 9 months. Starts out of nowhere…Severe pain and cramping in legs (screaming), sometimes bowel release (ugly), and then a big drop in blood pressure right to the edge of passing out. All testing has come back clean…blood, urine, CAT, MRI, etc. I’ve no idea what the triggers are and it has made me watch everything I eat & do. Brassicas are out. Any kind of muscle relaxer or relaxing tea and extra exertion physically. (Sometimes not?) Any suggestions appreciated.
I think inversion hangs is great. I think it calms the vagus nerve as well as many other benefits. It is very meditative to hang upside down, and it provide a nice blood-flow to the head, and it feels relaxing on the whole body. As soon you do an inversion hang, you are breathing totally different. The body needs decompression from time to time. I would recommend to have a inversion setup, where you can hang low enough to have your palms at the floor. It's a great exercise. I always feel good after hanging upside down.
@@ginoasci You're right. I think i just used an incorrect word at the moment. when i read trough my comment now, i see that ''stimulate'' would be a better choice of word. I think i wrote calm, because im getting incredibly calm when i do inversion hangs, and i think i connected that calmness to the vagus nerve somehow...
You forgot one, being fat and overweight, it puts pressure on the nerve around the neck area, which interrupts information from the brain to the rest of the body. Also doesn’t let your brain drain the toxins from your head, which cause head aches and cranial pressure. (Feels like your head is in a vise being squeezed)
Yoga breathing technique is great. Breathing in holding stomach in, breath should be deep and slow reaching all the way down. Exhale should be double the time and should be through the nose and should sound like light snoring.
Yasmin Naik You should breath slowly In while letting the stomach go Out so that the diaphragm drops to cater for and effect lung inflation in the chest cavity.
Every now and then I need a reminder to take time and calm down. I think about this video as I lay in bed and hope the deep breathing technique can not only aid in my sleeping, but help me calm to rest, get thoughts out of my head and relax to sleep. I hope it helps as I try this and use techniques provided to continue feeling better. Maybe be able to eat more food(s) I like without problems.
I can't get the link to the stress webinar to work from my phone. Can someone give me the exact title of the vid and I'll try to do a search for it. Thanks Dr Berg for another great video. 👍

Thank you for adding this. It's one of the most important aspects of healing.
Great information delivered in a simple way. Dr Berg is a very skilled presenter.
I think:
1- Life is the product of chemical reactions or combinations/decombinations. Chemicals that mix to create life are called biological chemicals.
2- Genes ascertain the way they mix, and, since, genes are also made from some of these chemicals, these biochemicals can also ascertain and alter the makeup of genes.
3- All organs are operated via the nervous system, so the nervous system operates all organs via these biochemicals.
4- The nervous system is itself made up of and modulated/regulated by chemicals, so these biochemicals can, in turn, affect the nervous system.
i- The brain has the central nervous system for information or thought processing, learning, strategizing and executing.
ii- The brain leverages the sympathetic nervous system for bodily action or sensory and limb modulation.
iii- The brain has the parasympathetic nervous system for vital organ modulation.
a-The sympathetic nervous system is modulated to meet the demands of the central nervous system.
b-The parasympathetic nervous system is modulated to meet the demands of the sympathetic nervous system.
c- Pain and comfort are the only stimuli felt by the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.
You need to experience emotional discomfort or limb or sensory pain form your CNS to back off from your sympathetic nervous, and you also need to feel pain or comfort for your sympathetic nervous system to back off from your sympathetic nervous system.
d- Muscular pain or ease/comfort or sensory pleasure/displeasure can, perhaps, even alter biochemistry to get the nervous system to heal itself, but more likely these just tell the higher nervous system to back off, without radically altering human biochemistry.
5- All biochemicals are made within our guts.
i-The organs within our gut are made from the genes we inherit from our parents, along with the emotions they experience, so these most likely are perfected for peculiar environs, tasks, jobs and emotions repeated over centuries, whereas emotions most likely modify the genes for changes in the environment
Mild emotions and physical exertion could incorporate incremental genetic mutations, whereas strong emotions and strenuous and repeated limb or organ abuse could trigger radical genetic changes within these limbs and organs or also the brain within the offspring.
The species themselves could only undergo moderate changes because they're genetically engineered for those environs.
ii- The biochemicals within our body are made from the food and beverage processed by the liver and kidneys, with the help from bile, gall bladder, and pancreas, whereas the breakup and digestion of food takes place in the intestines.
iii- The foods and toxins that we consume alter our biochemistry, and this, in turn, can even alter the nervous system.
iv- All diseases have their origins in what we eat and drink via our gut, or or breathe via lungs or our skin.
a- I think every disease, except for contagious germs, has its origins either in toxins we consume; inadequate or excessive nutrients we consume; or in the improper digestion
of these because of stress, physical inactivity or hyper- activity.
b- It is quite possible that each of our organs evolved independently, and these organs then got incorporated into our anatomy via symbiotic systems, like any culture of germs or any ecosystem of nourishing, complementing, and predating animals in nature.
The mitochondria could have been some ancient bacteria.
6- We know plaque creates cardiovascular diseases. Likewise cancer, tumors, rheumatism, lupus and fibromyalgia can be the deposition of either external toxins ingested by us or internal toxins generated by our own gut, and the fact that these impact the lymphatic system is proof of their toxic nature.
7- Whatever the disease, we first need to get rid of the external or internal toxins via food/beverage ingestion and neutralisation, and eventual excretion or surgical intervention, and then get rid of the genetically altered tissue via surgery, radiation, or a long-term nutritional, nervous and activity cure.
8- Since the vagus nerve modulates our parasympathetic nervous system; all organ cure would have to come via a blend of diet, vagus nerve modulation, toxin excretion, and diseased tissue removal or healing.
9- Vasodilation, constriction, and fluid supply, fluid regulation and fluid excretion is leveraged to transport, regulate and expel all nutrients and toxins.
i-Minerals and the nervous system cause this vasodilation and constriction
ii- Toxins are the byproducts of digestion, the waste generated by organs, or the injurious products ingested or inhaled by the body.
10- The immune system is modulated by the parasympathetic nervous system and destroys and/or excretes all foreign agents--germs and toxins.
i- The immune system is activated, when germs are ingested or inhaled in bulk, but calms down when those are destroyed and excreted/expelled.
ii- The immune system goes haywire via the constant seepage of germs into the bloodstream from the gut; the constant ingestion of parasites, germs or toxins from an unhealthy environment; or the constant intake of unhealthy food or even healthy nutrients in excess to generate toxins or unbalancing levels of nutrients
a- This is corrected via enemas, fasting, a change of medicinal, food, beverage and ventilation supply chains or via change of environs by moving to another place.
b- Omega 3 fatty acids subside inflammation, whereas Omega-6 fatty acids cause inflammation.
An excess of omega-3 will suppress the immune system, whereas an excess of omega-6 will over-excite the immune system.
c-Anything that suppresses the immune system does so by reducing inflammation. Anything that excites the immune system, does so by causing inflammation to alert the immune system to the problem via inflammation.
d-A balance of omega-3/omega-6 is required to hold the immune system in balance, but whenever the immune system is overactive, we need to calm it with omega-3 fatty acids, and whenever it is under-active and the body loses its ability to fight germs, we need to stimulate it with omega-6 fatty acids, and this is done by altering the omega-3/omega-6 ratios till the problem is addressed, and then reverting it back to normal level.
11- Finally, the nervous system makes vessels constrict and dilate via the excretion of hormones from glands and even the excretion of enzymes to process food for nutrients from which the hormones are constituted or synthesized.
i- The body has to be supplied with essential amino acids, from.which the body can make all other amino acids.
ii- The body has to be supplied with meat or dairy products for vitamin B12, which isn't provided via a plant-based diet.
iii- The body has to be supplied with healthy bacteria which are essential to digestion, synthesis, and mitochondrial energy production. Germicid edestroy these microbe cultures, so these have to be continually replenished.
iv- Vitamins, minerals, and flavonoids catalyze essential reactions for energy production, free-radical elimination, and hormone production. Some of these are obtained from plants, some from meats, and some from fermented products.
v- Proteins Are required for growth, carbohydrates for energy, and fats for energy storage, but, in moderate quantities, these also provide nutrients for essential chemical reactions, so one shouldn't completely take these out of one's diet.
vi- The body requires blood rich in oxygen and an efficient transport media.
a- Cancers and tumors are a parasympathetic nervous system response to destroy contaminated cells and to generate energy via fermentation when not enough oxygen is received at the cellular levels. The DNA of these cells is altered for destruction or for the anaerobic production of energy, so for reversion to normal cellular function, the toxins have to be removed for the reversion of DNA back to normal, and for sulfur containing essential amino acids to be supplied for the re-alteration of the DNA for normal function(only sulphur containing amino acids can alter DNA), and, finally, either a sufficient waiting
period provided for the cancerous cells to self-destruct, or, else, the cancerous tissue has to be excised via surgery, radiation or other means, and also mechanism provided for the excretion or expulsion of this dead-tissue.
b- Moderate physical activity can build vascular muscles to the facilitate mineral/nutrient transport and waste expulsion without necessitating a heavy reliance on vasodilation and construction via over stimulation of the endocrine system and without requiring a varied diet for the production of those hormones for endocrine modulation.
The endorphins released during exercise calm the parasympathetic nervous system, which in turn calms the sympathetic nervous system, and this calms the central nervous system via the elimination of excess energy, nutrients and waste.
Well done Dr Berg. You really are ontop of your game!!
on top? he is the prime minister of his game !
You explain everything so clearly.
I wish I could find a doc like you around me. You just have it figured out.
Yep. Literally all the docs I visit go straight to pills.
Wonderful Dr. Berg! This is a great explanation of how to support our parasympathetic system - and why it is necessary for our health and well being. Your acupressure tool and stress seminar are wonderful for supporting people - but as you have so many followers it would be great if you would do a five minute - just before sleep video/audio here on youtube to help support people as they are going to sleep.
Having worked with breath and formal medication with people for almost fifty years - I have found that just explaining how to do an equal breath - - or a five minute breath relaxation during a person's day is not enough - - even learning breath relaxation in individual and group sessions often is not enough until it becomes a habit as in the keto diet and intermittent fasting - - which is what led me to doing individual tapes for my patients in the eighties and putting a general instructional on youtube years back as people needed "training wheels" until their body and inind got used to the habit - -
The apps available today really are not good for real in depth practice and aid - but people are so used to your voice - and trusting you - that a five minute breathing tvideo to use as they go to sleep and another one for use several times during the day - - no huge explanations - just your voice and maybe some light music - - would really be helpful to the many who trust and benefit from your advice!
Keep up the wonderful work!!!

One of Your Best..Great Explanation on a Great Topic.
Just a quick bit of advice. I had a heavy heatbeat for 15 years and even though it wasn't life threatening it was hard to sleep with my heart pounding all the time. My whole body would move with every heart beat. I did have a bad diet and had gained about 25-30lbs. I won't give you all the details but finally I did a full month of 18/6 intermittent fasting(which was very hard for me to do!) and magically the heavy heartbeat went completely away. My best guess is my Vagus Nerve was being over stimulated which caused me to think it was my heart when it was the nerve the whole time..the IF allowed it to calm down and go back to normal.
Eric Haynes this is a great comment thanks for sharing this! Gives me hope as I’ve been suffering this recently & IF did clam me down. I will continue doing that & also the inversion hang as Lone Wolf Therapy commented right somewhere above your comment.
I have sustained a compression spine fracture T8 & that aggravates my overall pain besides this.
God bless you. Be well.
OMG! This has been me for the past 12 years. Went to a cardiologist twice and they found nothing. My doc acts clueless about it. Went low carb and started supplementing with magnesium and it's helping. Gonna try IF. Didn't even think that it could be the vagus nerve!
@@quickpstuts412 Yes I was surprised it was the vagus nerve too..the IF is such a radical different way to eat, it really does show that we eat way too often and that it does affect our body in unexpected/undesired ways. Good luck!
When you are very stressed you can get all sorts of problems. I got acid reflux and heart palpitations and fluttering. Dizziness and head aches when standing
I have symptoms like you, ill try if
Very good essential & vital information ! The body is so Amazing !
Thank you Doctor... most relaxing to stimulate the Vagus nerve by deep breathing- 6 secs in & 6 out.) "You should certainly safeguard your nerves, and force yourself to take time, and not only for prayer and meditation, but for real rest and relaxation." ~ Baha'i Faith, Lights of Guidance
He is great, I don't understand why someone would dislike a video like this, good videos like these should have zero dislikes.
These are probably jealous doctors
Dont be stupid, use your brain for once.
These are paid shils who trying to destroy the Truth !
Thank you, Dr Berg. I’d like to add there is some sort of connection between oral antibiotics and mental mood. I’d even go as far as saying they send me into a depression and I’m riddled with physical anxiety symptoms within a few days. I really dread having to take them, but occasionally they are necessary.
Me too! Last time I had to take them I felt so down and depressed!
Dr Berg you are the best...thank you so much for your explanation how you simplified the different way our body functions God bless you abundantly...appreciated
Please help Sk Rafik
Amen
Thanks, Dr. Berg!
Simple and easiest way to stimulate vagus nerve I know of is taking Digestive Bitters. Very informative videos Dr. Berg . Thanks
Which ones?
Do you mean like HCI with Gentian Bitters?
I have sweden bitter,is that it?
The *vagus nerve* carries an extensive range of signals from digestive system and organs to the brain and vice versa. It is the tenth cranial nerve, extending from its origin in the brainstem through the neck and the thorax down to the abdomen. It is the secondary "bodily brain" that communicates in concert with the brain to send messages and information about the "extremities" that might need repair. The vegas nerve can control the body in dire health or in coma to keep to keep the organism alive, especially the heart and the brain.
It would be logical that the vegas nerve is the last nerve system to conclude before death.
So it should be renamed as, *"the god nerve."*
I DID NOT SEE THE LINK BELOW FOR THIS /OUR BOOK. OH I soooo needed this on 8th nerve. I sm justs bout recvovered from what I inadvertently caused to happen
!You are not going to believe what happened...I am still dumbfounded. I hsve to.makecdure I have not caused harm which cannot be mitigated easily.
Thank you for explaining
My son has complex epilepsy (lennox gastaut). He’s getting the VNS device that stimulates the vagus nerve. Hoping it will work. There’s actually lots of proof it works. It’s been around over 20 years.
Your very generous in your information Dr berg, grateful for that.. and things make sense and explained very simply...those who apply and can see a difference are the witness to the knowledge you share..
I agree❣️🕊️☀️😇
I am half way through this video and am already 3xperi3ncing some relief. I experience palpitations several nights week amd generally within an hour of having Allen asleep. Its so scary, each time. I hope and pray the advice in this video will help.. ECG doesn't pick up any irregularities. Seems to be exactly what this video is about. I think I need magnesium support too. Thank you Dr. Berg!
So many typos..lol. sorry
Glad I found you--your vids seem to be a perfect length and pack in good info
Just what I’ve been looking for. Appreciate you sharing! 💙🙏💙
Thanks a million. I love your videos. You are such a great teacher. Have a blessed evening.
Breathing exercises changed my life! Literally. Controlled breathing + Controlling my Foods, cured me of my Social (mental & emotional) and Physical ailments. I highly recommend Dr. Eric Berg's work. Pay attention & practice daily = WINNING.
MGTOW is Bliss. Our Society is Piss.
I THINK THIS IS WHAT I'M DEALING WITH. THANK YOU LORD FOR ALLOWING ME TO FIND OUT EXACTLY WHAT'S BEEN BOTHERING ME!
I agree....since February 2022 I had a sudden medical issue that no doctor could give me any answers! 3 times in the ER within 4 weeks, I'm going on almost 3 months of specialist and still no "REAL" answer to my issue involving the stomach. I've gone through making Google my medical substitute to help with some answers that Doctors couldn't tell me...Then I found this RUclips doctor and everything was making sense! and seems to be fixing my issues.....Just amazing!
@@SeanChristopherMcGee YES!' IT'S JESUS MY BROTHER THEN DR. BERG. IN THAT ORDER BECAUSE THESE DOCTOR'S ARE PRACTICING MEDICINE 💊 THEY TRULY DON'T HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS PLUS I DON'T TRUST THEM NO WAY. ALL THEY EVER WANT IS TO KEEP YOU POPPIN PILLS MAKING MATTERS WORSE INSTEAD OF HITTING THE ROOT CAUSE. I HOPE YOUR BETTER I AM 💕💯🥰🤷♀️

Love you so much ,Dr.Berg.....
Love from Burma/Myanmar where Covid Delta and Coup are killing us intensely.😔
I relly like this video, it explains the vagus nerve and the sympathic and parasympathtic nervous system in very simple terms. Straight to the point and no waffle.
The most awaited video, thank you 😘😘😘
I think he makes the best videos about medical things.. i´ve learned so much and wrote it down. THANK YOU !!
Thank you so much for the video.
I have an interesting case.
I have been having this issue for quite sometime and was clueless how to address or even describe this to my physician.
I wake up from sleep almost breathless and needing to regulate breathing manually. Digestie problems occur too.
Happens frequently and sometimes multiple times a night.
Watching your videos are a great source of information.
Thank you!
I will try this.
Interestingly, I also have PCOS and recently diagnosed with insulin resistence, and am struggling to consistently keep my weight under check.
I am gradually cutting down on carbs and leaning towards protein and healthy fat and exercise.
I have subscribed to your videos. Thanks again for educating us.
Our experiences are very similar. I hope we will both resolve this. Prayers. 💌
@@thehappypearco. thank you. hope for our recovery & healing
Symptoms are on point. Thank you for the tips!
Breathing from stomach and not chest is lost/untaught. Babies breathe this way. Amazing relaxation.
It's good hay
I don't get it. Are you and he talking about DEEP breathing, not shallow breathing⁉️
But I saw babies like 2 years + .. they are breathing through stomach but faster
I started to focus on breathing with my stomach while I read more of the comments. Some people were saying that breathing techniques can help tinnitus. After just a few breaths with my stomach, my tinnitus stopped 😳 Thank you for the tip!!!
@@kellikelli4413 watch a baby breathing - their ribs barely move but their stomach swells with each in breath. Copy them - put yr hand over your chest and breathe so your hand does not move ... only your belly shd move. Also the belly-breathing stimulates the organs with the mild pressure. And you calm down.
If you observe someone breathing into their chest (esp the upper chest) they are in a constant state of STRESS!
You can gauge the emotional state of your children by their breathing signs - if they are breathing upper chest - they need comfort and love - cos they are stressed.
ps: Stress is FEAR ! Tho we pretend it is not.
Thank you for your time , effort and knowledge 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I don’t trust oz
Qigong. Biggest way to work on the calming nervous system. It takes time but it works better then most things long term
God-bless your heart most doctors are selfish and you're not. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge.
I have gastroparesis, I'm convinced it's from an old n3ck injury, the stimulation techniques actually started my stomach up again.
Really? How are you doing now? Has it improved even more?
Yes, please share! My adult daughter is truly suffering
This guy is awesome.
Thank you so much Doc
You're very welcome!
Breathwork is a saving grace for me💜
Dr.Berg Im seeing your video,Im feeling tight in my throat,and also dipressed,hope these exercises help me come out n enjoy my day
Yes indeed, this information changed my life 😊... shared with family and friends. Everyone enjoying the wonderful results!
Glad it helped and thanks for sharing!
Amazing. I was thinking about this verve last night. Thanks for the information!
very interesting I have gastro paresis IBS, chronic fatigue syndrome and factor 5 v-lieden. I've done a lot of hospital time and not 1 doctor has ever mentioned any of this except the stimulator. luckily I changed my diet and listen to sleep videos which practices the breathing technique. Thank u for this video. Hope you can educate Gastro doctors one this. I'm starting to have problems with my pancreas maybe this applied during waking hrs can help instead of just before sleeping. wish they were doing studies on this I would volunteer. Thank You
How are you Now????😊😊😊😊
what were your pancreas symptoms?
Wow that book title at the end... Superb! Gonna check it out. Thank you, Dr Berg for all you do.. xx..
Omg omg thank youuuuuu i was waiting for tgis
Great info, but there is an important phase missing in the breathing exercise. When you count to four after the exhale and before the inhale the body relaxes more. That phase is missing also in hyperventilation and shallow breathing.
I'm down 112lbs with your help THANK YOU !!!!!!!
Hope you're not an adult male as that's way too light.
How did you lose this weight. ? ? Which videos of his did you watch. ? Thxs
I also lost 300 lbs by just washing my face. It had a few layers of dirt caked on
That's awesome! Good job! 👍🏻
@@roddyrodrodrod - If you’ll go back and reread the OP’s post, he implied he has lost 112 lbs, not that he now weighs 112 lbs.
Best doctor ever..:)
Thank you so much 💝 Dr. Berg...
You're an angel 😇❤️
Dr. Berg, would like to see your stress webinar, but the video is not available. Can it be uploaded again, or can you get us to that video some other way? I would like to see acupressure for the vagus nerve. Thanks so much for your straightforward help!
Cold water on the head and back of the neck is the quickest way to stimulate the vagus nerve.
Yeah, that would stimulate my "scream like a little girl" reflex as well!!!!😲😲😲😲

What happens in the Vagus nerve stays in the Vagus nerve.

good one george
It's the exact opposite unfortunately!

Very Well explained!!!
Dr Berg, I have insomnia. I watched this video for a completely different reason, to calm my hiccups. I did the breathing exercise you recommended and woke up an hour later to my wife shaking me awake. THANK YOU. 🙏🤣😂🤣
You have insomnia and your wife sees you asleep and SHAKES YOU AWAKE 😩😬😩😬😩. Sounds like my husband !!!
Who's side is your wife on? I had this problem for many years.... Meditation helps me happily function in my stressful life on 4-6 hours sleep, Jack Kornfield videos helped
Your wife needs to let you sleep 😂

I just tested a little high on Magnesium. I was using a LOT internally and topically and didn't think anything of it. I need to ease up a bit but know that I need to supplement. Challenging. Maybe the electrolytes are a good vehicle?
Do a video about how they're laying in bed and such holding a cellphone and stressing certain nerves and muscles, a common one involving chest muscles where they begin thinking its their heart and possibly a heart attack that's developing, and of course while standing or sitting and developing hunchback and other problems.
4GUESTS wow so holding the cell phone while laying down watching these videos can cause you to feel like that? I thought sitting was bad for my back so been laying down to watch videos
I really get ALOT out of your videos, thank you!!!
I’d like to hear your thoughts on gastroparesis, which is related to the vagus nerve. They say there’s no cure. I wonder if vagus nerve stimulation can cure it or if you have any other ideas
Gary, this helps me with Gastroparesis; Ginger. Star Anise seed - from Indian/Asian grocery shops. To help digest a ‘big’ meal when you feel overwhelmed Quick Eze (Calcium Carbonate 800 mg) is great. And when desperate clean your teeth and swallow the toothpaste. To switch off the Fight or Flight mechanism ‘draw’ circles around the ear with a smooth pen-like device (not the protruding structure) but the top edge of the ear canal, either clockwise or anticlockwise.
Amazing info. Thanks a lot Eric
Very good info. Thank you.
Thanks for so good information,Dr. Berg! Love from Sweden
I see a PT who specializes in visceral manipulation who stimulated my vagus nerve...suffered with billiary spasms after gallbladder removal....Thank you Dr. Berg for explaining in other videos about the bile salts...im going to purchase them...I take a great digestive enzyme, but sometimes,struggle with that right shoulder pain and right sided neck and head pain...Thank you!!!
Hey michelle, how common are these PT's that can stimulate the vagus nerve?
The right side pain is often the liver-gallbladder which could use a cleanse.
Thank you doctor Berg.
I can't wait for my potassium citrate to arrive. Gotta get some K2 to go with my D3
Magnesium
Does it help ?
Thanks Doc...your videos are very reassuring 👍🏾😑
dr berg, can you please give us more info on gastrointestinal issues (such as gastroparesis) and the vagus nerve? :))))
Omg yes!! That's what I was looking for when I came across this video. Gastroparesis. Apparently that is linked to a nerve problem with the vagus nerve and PNS. So theoretically you'd think this would help. It's also linked to pots, hypothyroidism and diabetes.
I want the same info,I have all that in long covid.
Did you find the answer somewhere else?
@@ilovedogs938 did u find the answer eventually?
Yes, looking for same info here 🙏
Great info! Thank you.
Castor oil at abdomen area great for parasympathetic mode
Really? Can you explain please? How to apply? Just to smear on?
O J
google or youtube how to do it and try a few different method see what works best for you
you can start using a special cloth set made for Castor Oil pack at health food store, put it on either weckle line across the cloth, lay down and lay it on your lower abdomen, put a very warm hot water bag you can find at drug store, it will wipe you out.
Don’t use hot water bag when treat cancer.
i personally find shrink wrap works best, you can do it when you go to bed
you can also apply and wrap your knees area, that also works very well for me
Castor oil also very effective for burn skin when you wrap it.
many thanks .. all helps my poor health
So where is the video that was promised at the end of the video? 😢
Just watched something that stated the vagus nerve is also known to be connected to all the 7 charkras inside the body. This should help out for people who wants to have a visual and scientific evidence why things work out the way they do.
Apparently this is what is affecting me. Three trips to ER in the last 9 months. Starts out of nowhere…Severe pain and cramping in legs (screaming), sometimes bowel release (ugly), and then a big drop in blood pressure right to the edge of passing out. All testing has come back clean…blood, urine, CAT, MRI, etc. I’ve no idea what the triggers are and it has made me watch everything I eat & do. Brassicas are out. Any kind of muscle relaxer or relaxing tea and extra exertion physically. (Sometimes not?) Any suggestions appreciated.
I think inversion hangs is great. I think it calms the vagus nerve as well as many other benefits.
It is very meditative to hang upside down, and it provide a nice blood-flow to the head, and it feels relaxing on the whole body. As soon you do an inversion hang, you are breathing totally different. The body needs decompression from time to time. I would recommend to have a inversion setup, where you can hang low enough to have your palms at the floor. It's a great exercise. I always feel good after hanging upside down.
can inversion hangs increase blood pressure... is it safe for people with hypertension??
@@annjee6756 No, put you can do pull up hanging inversions.
stimulate the vagus nerve, not calm it.
that’s what everyone is advising.
where did you get calming the vagus nerve?
@@ginoasci You're right. I think i just used an incorrect word at the moment.
when i read trough my comment now, i see that ''stimulate'' would be a better choice of word.
I think i wrote calm, because im getting incredibly calm when i do inversion hangs, and i think i connected that calmness to the vagus nerve somehow...
Oh this is so good, the way explain it really makes sense. Thank you 🙏
You forgot one, being fat and overweight, it puts pressure on the nerve around the neck area, which interrupts information from the brain to the rest of the body. Also doesn’t let your brain drain the toxins from your head, which cause head aches and cranial pressure. (Feels like your head is in a vise being squeezed)
Thank you Dr. Berg 💖💖💖
Yoga breathing technique is great. Breathing in holding stomach in, breath should be deep and slow reaching all the way down. Exhale should be double the time and should be through the nose and should sound like light snoring.
Yasmin Naik
You should breath slowly In while letting the stomach go Out so that the diaphragm drops to cater for and effect lung inflation in the chest cavity.
Every now and then I need a reminder to take time and calm down. I think about this video as I lay in bed and hope the deep breathing technique can not only aid in my sleeping, but help me calm to rest, get thoughts out of my head and relax to sleep.
I hope it helps as I try this and use techniques provided to continue feeling better. Maybe be able to eat more food(s) I like without problems.
You look good, Dr. Berg! New shirt?

It is "Technique to release stress and rest restfully" or sth like that.
