Q. I'm told I have vasovagal syncope; how is it treated?

A.

This is when the parasympathetic nervous system (vagus nerve) becomes excessively active during stressful or tense situations, causing a sudden drop in blood pressure and resulting in fainting. It commonly affects individuals with a weak heart and low energy levels. Treatment with restorative herbal medicine that strengthens heart function and boosts vitality helps prevent recurrence.
