Introduction:
Our nervous system is comprised of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. One is reactive to stress and produces cortisol, adrenaline and other hormones to help you survive. To run, fight or hide in the face of imminent danger. Unfortunately, we are living in a high stress environment where we may be experiencing this sympathetic reaction more than 70% of our life. The parasympathetic NS is one that allows for resting and digesting.
Inflammation is a tool the immune system uses to kill viruses and bad bacteria. The immune system needs to be kept in balance so it can identify and destroy the enemies and allow normal body processes to thrive.
