The heart rate variability measurement shows us how well our autonomic nervous system is set up. Roughly speaking, our autonomic nervous system consists of two parts - the sympathetic nervous system (tension) and the parasympathetic nervous system (relaxation).

The autonomic nervous system is one of the two systems that the body uses for communication between organs. The second system - the hormonal system (endocrine system), communicates, as the name suggests, via hormones, while the autonomic nervous system communicates via nerves. It is also referred to as the autonomic nervous system because it acts and reacts involuntarily, i.e. it is not subject to our will, but acts independently, quasi unconsciously for us and can hardly be consciously influenced by us.

In this article, we look at the causes, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment options for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).
Intestinal cleansing after antibiotics - a topic that is often asked about in my practice, both by existing patients and new inquiries. Questions upon questions arise in this area and you read a lot on the internet, some of which even contradict each other.

Most people who have a constant cold have tried almost every conceivable medication and home remedy on themselves - usually without lasting success.
