## What is HRV Health?

Our platform proves the benefit of lifestyle choices: exercise, holidays, meditation and good sleep, and the negative impact of high stress, sleep deprivation, lack of exercise, drinking alcohol, and smoking. 
We measure stress and the results warn users that they need to take remedial action. 
It sounds like science fiction. It is science. It is not fiction.
Our site provides links to all the research backing our technologies. Prove it for yourself. We have users around the world who are our ambassadors. Join them. Become a member of the HRV Health community.
The heart is not a metronome. Even at a steady pulse of 60 beats per minute the gap between heart beats varies up and down. The interval can be 1.2 seconds, then 1.3, then 0,8. The more is varies, the healthier you are.
Elite athletes have been using HRV for decades to stay at the top of their game. Now that technology is available to you.
Up until now HRV measurement needed expensive equipment. Now, using the Polar H9 or H10 heart rate monitor, you can link to our app, and get the benefits of top of the range HRV metrics, just like the pros. 
Our HRV Health platform and blog provides newbies all the guidance they need to come to grips with this exciting science. And at a price everyone can afford - it’s free.
