Yep GG, the Vagus Nerve is packed with more than 100,000 fibers carrying signals from your brain to your body, regulating:
* Heart rate
* Taste
* Speech
* Skin sensations
* Muscle sensations
* Immune response
* Respiratory rate
* Blood pressure
* Mucus production
* Saliva production
* Digestion
* Frequency of urination
* Mood
Its position, running along the side of the neck near the skin surface, allows ActiPatch and RecoveryRx to stimulate it with a pulsed radio frequency magnetic field at 27.1 MHz. The potential is there to help scores of medical conditions from this one neck access point.
Also notice this statement from yesterday's BIEL Facebook posting in reference to the patent application which sounds like much more than just a device patent,
"It outlines methods, systems, apparatuses, and devices that modify the immune response through non-invasive stimulation of the vagal nerves."
