Some country wise health data!

The below is based on infographics generated from Ultrahuman ring users ( cutoff 500 users per geo ):
Posting data and leaving here for interpretation:

  1. Avg sleep HRV: Higher is better and linked to all cause mortality and well-being:

  2. Night time Resting heart rate: Lower is better and linked to cardiovascular health:

  3. Sleep duration: More is better. Sleep is fundamental to health :slight_smile:

  4. Steps count: More is better.

  5. REM sleep %: More is better. Higher REM means better memory and lesser risk of neurodegenerative disorders.

It’s crazy how much our environment and economic conditions play role in our health and well-being.

Where does India score in the first 3 points? :slight_smile:

Also the X axis is missing here (the %'s). Can you maybe reshare the image?

Ah yes. I think the image got clipped. Sorry for that. Attached again.
India seems to be in the bottom quadrant for all sleep related markers ( just above Middle East and few SEA countries ). From an activity / movement perspective ( steps data ) , India’s the lowest overall. Guess we need to move more :slight_smile:

What was the duration of tracking? Because Russians are sleeping more than Indians even during the adversity :slight_smile:

Even with a higher sleep HRV , the quality of REM sleep in Indians is lower than Americans :slight_smile:

Sleep isn’t really a fixed rule thing it quietly gets negotiated by our screen time. The more we scroll on laptops or phones, the more we end up borrowing from our sleep without even noticing it.
