Description

Angela presents a biohack alongside Kristen Holmes, looking at the topic of heart rate variability and its significance in measuring one's ability to adapt to external stress, highlighting the individual variability in heart rate variability and how it can be influenced by various lifestyle choices and experiences
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Heart rate variability varies greatly among individuals and is influenced by lifestyle choices made over time.
Understanding and improving heart rate variability involves considering factors such as alcohol consumption, sleep quality, sleep-wake timing, diet, relationships, and past trauma.
Heart rate variability reflects the body's ability to adapt to external stressors, with higher variability associated with better health outcomes and reduced risk of cardiovascular events and metabolic diseases.
Sleep-wake regularity has been identified as a key predictor of physiological and psychological functioning, with consistent sleep-wake times correlating with better overall well-being and performance.
