The
Nervous System Protocols The nervous system affects virtually every operation performed by the body from the movement of skeletal and smooth muscle, to regulating heart rate. The nervous system interacts closely with the endocrine system. The chronic over stimulation of these two systems leads to the symptoms of stress. The nervous system provides a direct interface between the internal and external environments. Herbal practitioners use the close relationship and interplay of the nervous and endocrine systems when dealing with nerve-related conditions. Depression: The medical profession has very definite criteria as to what constitutes clinical depression. Any five of the following symptoms present daily for most of the day for a period of 14 consecutive days constitutes a depressive episode. Factors Affecting Depression: - Abnormal neurotransmitter levels in the brain and spinal cord. - Periods of stress - Depleted B Vitamins Symptoms and Signs of Depression: - Feelings of sadness that don’t go away -
