Vagal Nerve

The vagus nerve is a major nerve that runs from your brain down to your abdomen, influencing many vital functions. It’s part of the parasympathetic nervous system, helping your body relax, digest food, regulate heart rate, and manage inflammation. Often called the "wandering nerve," it connects your brain to various organs, transmitting signals that help maintain internal balance and respond to stress. Its health and function are essential for overall well-being, and it plays a key role in the body's calming and restorative states.
