Vagus Nerve Stimulation is all the rage right now on the SIBO group I follow on Facebook. Everyone has been watching the Digestion Sessions with Dr. Kharrazian so they are all gagging, gargling and singing. I'm not saying this is a bad thing. It's free, fairly easy (if you remember to do it) and worth a shot to help improve your motility. For me, I don't think the vagus nerve is the cause of my slow motility. I've been doing yoga for years and the breathing that we do in class stimulates the vagus nerve. I've also been trying to do belly breathing daily which apparently also stimulates the vagus nerve.
These are all pretty interesting if you are interested in learning more about the vagus nerve or you can always pick up Dr. Kharrazian's book!
