Truvaga, a non-invasive Vagus Nerve Stimulator (niVNS), is a portable, natural, non-pharmaceutical option for anxiety and sleep support.

Dr. Adame recommends Truvaga for:
- Improved Sleep
- Stress Reduction
- Enhancing parasympathetic tone ("rest and digest")
- Reduce sympathetic arousal ("flight, flight, or freeze")
- Reducing Pain
- Procedural Pain and Anxiety (Dr. Adame is a needle-phobe and uses Truvaga when she gets shots or lab draws!))

Truvaga works by delivering mild electrical impulses to the vagus nerve around the carotid artery which activates autonomic and limbic pathways to modulate sleep, stress, and vagal tone. Truvaga increases heart rate variability and baroreflex sensitivity after single and repeated sessions. Studies showed improvement in objective (blunted stress biomarkers) and subjective (perceived stress) outcomes.Truvaga works best with repeated use. Dr. Adame recommends THREE times daily PLUS as needed for optimal outcomes.

For our patients, you can try Truvaga next time you are in our clinic!

At Culver Peds we encourage families affected by PANDAS/PANS and other neuroimmune conditions to keep track of symptoms, interventions, response to interventions, and triggers to help us determine next steps in their child's treatment plan. We previously relied on Google forms, family's notes, and Dr. Adame's documentation in the chart to carry this out.

Now there is a new tool available to help families and doctors trend symptoms more effectively and streamline appointments.

The unhide® Solve Together Unified Platform, supported by the Brain Inflammation Collaborative, offers a secure, private platform to track symptoms, identify patterns, and share data with their doctor.

The unhide® Solve Together Unified Platform Benefits Patients By:
- Track Your Symptoms
- Connect Wearable Devices
- Link Electronic Health Records
- Download Symptom Data Reports to Share With Your Doctor
- Set Pacing Notifications (crucial in Post-Exertional Malaise)
- Connect To Research Studies

Hydration is not just a summer issue. Staying hydrated during dry winter months is essential for optimal health.

The dry winter air increases:
- Body water and electrolyte loss

We love Cure to optimize winter hydration because it is plant-based and free of Refined sugars, artificial dyes, and synthetic ingredients.
