Metabolic Health
Vagal tone, food sensitivities, sleep, and metabolic health are tightly interconnected through the gut-brain axis, largely regulated by the vagus nerve. High vagal tone enables the body to recover from stress, manage digestion, and regulate metabolism, while los vagal tone is associated with chronic inflammation, food sensitivities, poor sleep and metabolic disorders like obesity, insulin resistance and diabetes.

Tracking Activities
As Lord Kelvin said, If you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it. This is so true when it comes to health, especially for health issues that go unnoticed for years or even decades. This is very common with Metabilic Syndrome - yea you have some belly fat and skin tags though feel just fine. That is until a heart attack or stroke takes you down. HRV tracking is the easiest,least expensive way to see data that reflects the subtleties of your health condition." Metabolic Harmony +
Self Reporting
Self reporting is not only a way to collect data, it is also a path to self awareness. Data is analyzed and entered into an algorithm to provide relevant recommendations. Self awareness enhances decision-making, emotional intelligence and relationships by helping individuals understand their strengths and weaknesses. It turns attention inward to notice the body, mind and thoughts that otherwise get filtered out by the brain. SweetBeatHRV and DailyBeatHRV
