Home health monitoring

Post by Scott 2 »

What's worth monitoring at home??? Testing tools are cheaper every day. Ideas:

Weight
Body fat percentage
Resting heart rate
Hear rate variability
Blood pressure
Fasting blood sugar
Blood sugar pre/post meal
Others???

Leading metrics pointing to acute results of behavior seem appealing. So many choices...

Fasting cholesterol
Hemoglobin level
After age 55: blood in stool-test
After age 55 for men: PSA

And go see a doctor if you don't feel well.

Edit: something for sleep quality as well; measuring it now and then, not every night I think :D
