The vagal nerve is activated, when we are relaxing und have little or no stress. It is also our “self repair nerve”, activated during sleep and recreation. A high vagal tone together with a low heart rate indicates a relaxed, recreative state and shows reserves to cope with stress. Vagal activity protects our heart from infarction and our body from silent inflammation, the main reason of chronic diseases. Vagal tone is a valuable indicator of health.
Meditation, respiratory biofeedback, music therapy, coordinative exercises like tai chi, yoga and eurythmy, but also a recreational vacation or cure will improve vagal tone, especially during the night. Some studies also show, that Omega 3 oil rich nutrition as well as moderate exercise during the day is able to increase vagal activity. Vagal tone training with VitalCheq in preparation.
Flexibility): A healthy heart does not beat quite regularly, it dances around an average value, like an experienced tennis player waiting for a ball. This dance is called heart rhythm flexibility. SDNN is a measure of the over all heart rhythm flexibility and describes the ability of the heart to react to changing conditions. High SDNN may arise, when we are stressed, but able to cope with the stress. Low SDNN combined with high heart rate indicates, that the reserves of our heart become small.
A balanced work life balance, moderate regular exercise and a healthy life style all will help your body to make your heart as flexible as possible. Heart Rhythm Flexibility training with VitalCheq in preparation.
The pulse wave produced by the heart beat runs into the arterial system with a certain velocity, which is determined mainly by Arterial Elasticity. In the peripheral vessels, the wave is reflected and turns back to the heart. If the pulse wave velocity is too fast, the pulse wave returns, when the heart valves are still open and the returning wave disturbs the outflow of the blood. A slow pulse wave velocity lets the pulse wave run slowly and return, when the heart valves are already closed. The returning pulse wave in this case moves into the open coronary vessels and support the important blood perfusion of the myocardium, the heart muscle.
Omega 3 oils available in fat fish and linseed oil keep the vessels structurally elastic . Stress reduction reduces the stress mediated tension of the vessels and slows down the pulse wave velocity. Mediterranean diet with high quality dietary fats (virgin olive oil) and antioxidative polyphenols and regular moderate exercise.
