Autonomic Nervous System
The autonomic nervous system is the quick acting response system maintaining homeostasis within the body. It has two divisions that work to counteract each other and keep the body in balance. The sympathetic division is responsible for the "fight or flight" response and prepares the body for physical exertion while the parasympathetic division calms the body down and is the "rest and digest" state of being. The products in this category supply specific acid and alkaline ingredients to nutritionally support the autonomic nervous system. †
