Symptoms and Root Causes of Vagus Nerve Dysfunction 
My notes.
Brain to organs:
Greatly influences vocal chords; heart rate; rapid shallow breathing; slow digestion; 16-20 hours transit time; breathing pattern-high chest; detoxification; Apnea- throat muscles collapse due partly to VN dysfunction; sleep-recovery; Gut acid production; influences microbiome; 70% of immune system is in lining of the gut;  neutralizing toxins and breaking down of foods; attempts to moderate inflammation to acceptable levels; chronic inflammation bad diet invites bacterial overgrowth; worms, viruses, parasites, yeasts break down gut lining; liver = 500 functions: filter, blood sugar monitor, glutathione increases ability to handle toxic exposures of plastics, metals, personal products or they pass into the body; pancreas greatly depends on liver function; liver and pancreas must work together via the VN;  Stress equals adrenaline and cortisol: it raises glucose levels so adding more sugar wears out both liver and pancreas. Excess sugary diets stores as fat and fatty liver.

ROLIN  McCRATY  
Heart Rate Variability (HRV) as a Measure of Vagus Function 
My notes.
Reflects what is going on. Makes us more aware. Needs to be higher differences: faster on inhale and slower on exhale; measure over 24 hours; negative emotional sate flattens it out - less variable;  love, kindness, patience, peace, increases HRV; influenced by blood pressure, hormonal balance, bran rhythms, organ info sent to brain much more then brain sends to organs = 9%-10%; HRV can modulate perception; When high HRV it can foster faster reaction times; better decision making; coherence. 
STRESS-CONFLICT-SELF REGULATION-FAILURE all greatly reflective in HRV; Breathing module activity from brain to heart. Breathing can cause greater or lesser HRV shifting into or out of coherence.   https://vagusnerveconnectionsummit.com/expert/rollin-mccraty/
