“A validation study comparing a Fitbit Charge 4 with medical-grade devices found moderate-to-good agreement for respiratory rate, resting heart rate, and HRV in adults with and without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.”

“Biomarkers of blood-brain barrier dysfunction can be measured before other pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease, including amyloid plaques and tau tangles.”

“Drinking two to three cups of coffee a day is linked with a longer lifespan and lower risk of cardiovascular disease compared with avoiding coffee. This was the case for ground, instant and decaffeinated coffee.”

“Dr. Patrick recommends vigorous intervals when moderate training does not improve an individual’s VO2 max and presents repeated one-minute efforts and the Norwegian 4-by-4 as practical options.”

“Acute cognitive experiments likewise do not establish cardiovascular safety. Heart-rate, blood-pressure, vascular, dependence, sleep, and cancer-context risks must be weighed independently from a short attention effect.”

“Approximately 1 in 3 children in the U.S. are overweight or obese and childhood obesity is growing by 50% per decade”

“The Kuopio Ischemic Heart Disease Risk Factor Study, an ongoing prospective population-based cohort study of health outcomes in more than 2,300 middle-aged men from eastern Finland, identified strong, dose-dependent links between sauna use and reduced death and disease.”

“These effects were attributed to the suppression of the transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 channel – a protein that plays roles in vascular function, among others. Congestive heart failure is typically described as the end stage of heart disease.”
