With new technologies at forefront, we have seen a number of wearables & other tech devices tracking number of useful parameters at plasma level. One of the growing tech pieces is smart rings which could measure stuff such as Heart Rate Variability(HRV) & sleep patterns. Research has also found that gut-brain axis has a role to play in HRV & people having IBD have low HRV While HRV is a good measure to learn about our stress response, sleep patterns & inflammatory cascades, it leaves a great gap. What is the actionable once you know your HRV is low? What dietary changes should you make ?  How can you regulate this score? To find answers to these questions, it is important to understand & measure various pathways at molecular level which impacts HRV. What could cause low HRV? -Is it LPS Production? -Low GABA Production? -Elevated uric acid production? -Histamine Overproduction? -Low Nitric Oxide production? -Low Butyrate Production? Until we know which specific pathway or combination of pathways is causing HRV & what specific mechanisms of action is required to regulate the score , tracking HRV through these new age smart rings is of no use Similarly just tracking your sleep is half baked cake. Multiple reasons could disrupt sleep patterns -Is it gut dysbiosis that is producing neurotoxin metabolites reaching the brain & activating the HPA axis, thereby causing stress & obstructing sleep? -Or oral dysbiosis due to high fluoride in toothpaste which is disrupting melatonin production? https://lnkd.in/g86n59dG We at Genefitletics collects & analyses your molecular data to measure your chemistry & functions performed by gut & oral microbiome at molecular level to understand specific pathways which are impacting HRV & provide precision nutrition interventions to bring your body back into homeostasis.

Stress, while often thought of as having merely an emotional impact, has physiological manifestations. When we feel stressed, our body's "fight-or-flight" response kicks in. Hormones like cortisol and adrenaline surge, preparing us for action. Heart rate rises, blood pressure increases, and blood vessels constrict. This response, regulated by the autonomic nervous system, impacts various bodily functions. There have been various ways of measuring stress - from questionnaires and clinical tests to sweat analysis. But each has their limitations. The amount of stress most people experience in our modern life, however, often wreaks havoc on their health. When stress persists, and becomes chronic, it's been linked to decreased cardiovascular health and increased risk of anxiety-depressive symptoms. Hence, it's become more evident than ever to accurately measure and monitor stress levels on an individual level and in real time to take a more preventive approach to health. In our latest blog, we dive into some traditional approaches and how harnessing the power of wearable biosensors, like Biostrap Kairos, we can gain valuable insights into our stress levels in real time and take proactive steps to improve the state of our nervous system. https://lnkd.in/geTywgMT #stressreduction #stress #stressresilience #stressmonitoring #stressmanagement #kairos #biostrap #stresswearable #healthmonitoring #ppg #data #hrv #hrvandstress

Should we measure our exercise in time or steps? Research finds step-count and time are equally valid in reducing health risks.

One of the biggest scams in the holistic health space are EMF pendants. I believe non-native EMF’s like wifi, excess magnetism, and dirty electricity can all have harmful effects on our health, including affecting fertility, sleep, anxiety, and headaches, to name a few. That being said, the different products that are being marketed to “harmonize” or “neutralize” EMF’s is not based on any sound science. And all you need to prove this is a radiofrequency and gauss meter. When you wear these pendants or other devices guess what changes to the readings on these meters? Nothing. The EMF’s in your environment are the same as always and they are hitting you regardless if you wear them or not. No, it’s not “harmonizing” anything. It’s also not “neutralizing” anything. So what does work? The 3 D’s. Distance, disconnect, duration. Keep as much DISTANCE from your EMF-producing devices as possible. For instance, keep your phone at least a few feet away from you whenever possible. DISCONNECT any device you are not using, such as turning off your wifi at night and putting your phone on airplane mode. Decrease the DURATION of time you are exposed to excess EMF’s. Do those three things and you’re way ahead of the game. Beyond that, you have to be extremely savvy to set up effective ways to further block EMF’s and it’s something where you can easily increase your exposure if you do it wrong.

Did you know a cough is a common symptom of an underlying health condition, ranging from reflux to lung cancer. Learn how digital health technologies can make cough monitoring as common as sleep tracking – providing brand new insights for health management.

Are your health and honesty linked? Here's how you indirectly lie to yourself and how it can impact your health. How many times have you told yourself you would do any of the following but failed to commit and stay consistent: 1)Eat more healthy 2) Stay more active 3) Sleep earlier and a little longer 4) Reduce work stress 5) Stop the intake of alcohol or smoking tobacco Each time you fail to stick to your commitments, your brain interprets it as a lie. Failing to keep your health commitments demotivates you, makes you unhealthy, and increases your risk of lifestyle diseases like obesity, stress, hypertension, diabetes, etc. I have also failed to keep my health promises until I decided to be more intentional by developing a self-monitoring system. Having a self-monitoring system will help you keep track of your commitments and will ensure you get back on track when you veer off. Examples of self-monitoring systems for lifestyle health behaviors are: 1) Journals 2) Mobile tracking apps 3) Activity tracking wearable devices How do you monitor and become intentional in your health commitments?
