PNOĒ for Cardiovascular Health
Every Breath Reveals Your Heart's Health
PNOĒ provides comprehensive insights into your heart health through advanced breath analysis. Our assessment measures three key aspects of cardiovascular function that are crucial for both daily health and physical performance:
1. Resting VO2 ( Oxygen Uptake)
Knowing your resting VO₂ can provide valuable insights into your overall cardiovascular health and metabolic efficiency. It reflects how efficiently your body uses oxygen at rest, which can be an indicator of fitness levels, heart health, and insulin sensitivity. A lower resting VO₂ often suggests a well-conditioned heart and lungs, while a higher VO₂ may indicate areas of improvement. By tracking resting VO₂, you can monitor changes in your fitness progress, set personalized goals, and make more informed decisions about your exercise routine and overall health management.
2. Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
This sophisticated measurement shows how well your heart adapts to different situations and stress levels. High HRV typically indicates better stress management, improved sleep quality, and stronger cardiovascular health. Athletes with good HRV experience faster recovery and better training adaptation. Lower HRV might suggest the need for better stress management and recovery strategies, particularly important for both daily wellbeing and athletic performance.
3. Sympathetic/Parasympathetic Balance
This measurement reveals how well your body balances between its stress response ("fight or flight") and relaxation systems. Good balance indicates effective stress management, stable energy levels, and proper recovery capacity - essential for daily wellbeing. Athletes with optimal balance experience better performance readiness and stronger stress resilience. Imbalances might signal chronic stress, frequent fatigue, or potential overtraining in athletes.
