In this episode of Passion Struck, John R. Miles sits down with Dr. Kevin Tracey, a pioneer in neuroimmunology, to explore the remarkable healing potential of the vagus nerve. Dr. Tracey explains how this hidden superhighway between the brain and body regulates inflammation and how targeted stimulation is providing life-changing results for patients with rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease, and other autoimmune conditions. Together, they dive into the science, personal stories, and future implications of using bioelectronic medicine to treat disease without drugs — potentially rewriting the rules of modern healthcare.
