Vagus Nerve Device for Rheumatoid Arthritis | Dr. Kevin Tracey | S7 - E5

The Pod of Inquiry The Podcast For Human Optimization And Understanding

After 18 years of research and hundreds of millions invested, the FDA has just approved the first bioelectronic device to treat rheumatoid arthritis — without dangerous immunosuppressive drugs.

In this week’s episode of Pod of Inquiry, I sit down with Dr. Kevin Tracey, the “father of bioelectronic medicine,” to explore a breakthrough that could reshape how we treat autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

In This Episode, You’ll Discover: 🔹 How a stroke research accident led to one of the biggest medical breakthroughs of our time 🔹 Why current drug-based treatments may be the wrong approach to autoimmune disease 🔹 The staggering demand: 20,000+ patients applied for just 242 trial spots 🔹 Why some patients are choosing a 1-hour surgery over a lifetime of $100K biologics 🔹 The revolutionary multivitamin-sized device that works in just 1 minute per day

Dr. Tracey explains how the Vagus nerve acts as the body’s “brakes” on inflammation, and how his SetPoint Medical device restores balance by reducing inflammatory cytokines by 50–70% — without shutting down your immune system.

And this is just the beginning. Clinical trials are underway for: ✅ Crohn’s disease & ulcerative colitis ✅ Multiple sclerosis (with surprising remyelination effects) ✅ Psoriatic arthritis ✅ Diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s

Why This Matters ?: ➡️Patients are achieving complete remission and stopping all medications.

➡️Treatment works with your biology, not against it.➡️Potential to reverse disease damage, not just slow it down.

This conversation will fundamentally change how you think about inflammation, autoimmunity, and the future of medicine.

👉 Don’t miss this groundbreaking episode. The future of medicine isn’t in new drugs — it’s in decoding the electrical language your body already speaks.
