The Journey to Developing Vagus Nerve Stimulation
Welcome back to the Health Upgrade Podcast!
In this episode, we’re joined by special guest Peter Staats to explore the exciting world of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS). We’ll take a look at how his interest in neuromodulation began in the 1990s and how it led to amazing advances in noninvasive VNS technology—also called a "digital drug."
Peter shares how this technology has developed into a non-surgical option for managing stress, inflammation, pain, and even improving focus. You’ll hear fascinating patient stories and learn how VNS can help with conditions like asthma, while also offering potential anti-aging benefits.
We also talk about the journey to get FDA approval and how this groundbreaking technology is changing healthcare today.
If you enjoyed this episode, share it with friends, family, or your doctor. Help spread the word about the power of vagus nerve stimulation to boost mental clarity, reduce pain, and support overall health!
