We have recently developed an algorithm that calculates the user’s HRV age from to their health metrics, making it easier for users to see how good their health really is. If your HRV age is lower than your chronological age, you’re in good health. It also provides the benefit that users can see the age… Continue reading HRV Age

People with high HRV live longer
HRV declines with age[1]RMSSD by age and gender. When looking at the statistics it appears that the rate of declines slows as we get older, and then reverses after 80[2]Relation of high heart rate variability to healthy longevity. The reason for this pattern lies in the way that averages work. People with lower HRV die… Continue reading People with high HRV live longer
RMSSD by age and gender
The HRV Health system produces a metric called “Percentile” which reflects the percentile into which the RMSSD result fits, relative to the general population by age and gender. This is the base data that our algorithm uses to produce the Percentile result. RMSSD and HRV Score by age and gender[1]Short-term heart rate variability–influence of gender… Continue reading RMSSD by age and gender
Reversing ageing with HRV
As we get older our health deteriorates. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) measures health, and that decline in health appears as lower HRV. At the age of 65, my HRV score should be 51. As the graph above confirms, even at its worst my score is always above 65 – the score for a 25 year… Continue reading Reversing ageing with HRV
HRV and ageing
Age is a disease. That’s Dr David Sinclair’s point. It has all of the symptoms of a disease, and the only reason that it’s not classified as a disease is because everyone suffers it. So, how does it work? Cells are allocated to certain tasks within the body at birth. During life, they die… Continue reading HRV and ageing
