What is Heart Rate Variability (HRV)?
These are the natural variations in the time intervals between your heartbeats. A high VFC is associated with better cardiovascular health, a more adaptive stress response and improved physical fitness.
At IAKOTA, we've developed innovative products that promote optimal VFC. Our approach is based on advanced technologies and proven methods, all designed to optimize your cardiovascular health.
Our recovery mattress topper will stimulate some of your body's natural mechanisms and encourage optimal autonomic regulation of your cardiovascular system. Through non-invasive therapy, our products help you increase your CFV and improve your overall well-being.
In 2012, a study showed improved activation of the parasympathetic nervous system and increased heart rate variability during sleep. This improves cardiovascular health and reduces stress.1
How is a high VFC associated with better health?
- It indicates a healthy, responsive autonomic nervous system. The sympathetic and parasympathetic systems are capable of effectively influencing cardiac rhythms.
- It is linked to a lower risk of cardiac events and mortality, as it reflects healthy autonomic function.
- It indicates the body's ability to adapt to internal and external stress factors. A lower HRV is linked to increased inflammation and oxidative stress.
- A high VFC allows the heart to react and increase its rate when needed, while still being able to slow down at rest. This flexibility reflects cardiac efficiency.
Good health parameters associated with high VFC include
- lower blood pressure and healthier cholesterol levels
- Improved sleep quality
- Better glycemic control for diabetics
- Increased resistance to stress factors
- Improved mood, cognitive function and emotional regulation
- Increased parasympathetic tone, which promotes rest, digestion and recovery
- Improved cardiovascular fitness and exercise capacity
- Directly reflects the athlete's performance level
In summary, greater heart rate variability is a marker of efficient autonomic function, cardiovascular health and the body's resistance to physical and emotional stressors. It is associated with numerous parameters reflecting cardiac recovery in sport.
