New research published in the journal Psychophysiology suggests that stimulating a nerve in the ear can make people less ...

The Truvaga Plus claims to relieve stress, improve sleep, and clear brain fog — but does it really deliver? We tested it out.

The vagus nerve is a long, branching and meandering nerve that serves as an information superhighway. It is the longest and most complex of the 12 cranial nerves.

A recent study published in Psychophysiology provides new insights into how stimulating the vagus nerve through the ear might ...
