| EIS indicators |
The EIS measures the human body electrical properties (electrical conductivity and dispersion).
The signals processing analysis provides data about the galvanic skin response.
Main indicators for each electrodes pairs : Hand, Foot and Forehead
SDC + : Electrical conductivity related to the pathway from anode to cathode and from the peer reviews it seems related with the tissue oxygen level
Delta SDC+-SDC -: numeric value .From the peer review, it seems related to the interstitial chloride ions (inversely proportional) .
Alpha parameter : Electrical Dispersion. From the peer reviews, it seems related to the morphology of the fluid between the cells.
| HRV |
Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is the mathematical analysis of the time between each Heart beat and provides indicators of the Autonomic nervous system activity and it is the gold standard to estimate your stress level.
Main indicators:
Heart rate: The number of heart beats per minute
SI Stress Index: Indicator of the heart left ventricle work and heart oxygen consumption
MxDMn: Indicator of the stability of the heart rhythm
HF % and ms: Main indicator of the parasympathetic activity
Total Power: Indicator of the vagal activity.
LF/HF: ratio considered by some investigators to mirror sympathetic/parasympathetic balance or to reflect sympathetic modulations.
HRV Indicators
| SPo2 % and Photoelectrical Plethysmograph |
Q (Cardiac Output): Indicator of the volume of blood being pumped by the heart in a minute.
SVR (Systemic Vascular Resistance) : Indicator of peripheral Resistance to flow that must be overcome to push blood through the circulatory system.
MAP (Mean Arterial Pressure): Average pressure during the aortic pulse cycles estimated from the Digital Pulse Analysis
Stiffness Index: Indicator of the large artery stiffness related to the blood pressure
Reflection Index: Indicator of small and middle size artery stiffness
DEI: Indicator proportional to the peripheral artery elasticity or to the venous return (vasoconstriction)
Estimated VO2: Oxygen uptake represents the oxygen supply for the tissue metabolism
Estimated DO2: oxygen delivery is the rate of oxygen transport in the arterial blood
SpO2%: Hemoglobin oxygen saturation in percent corresponding to the arterial oxygen pressure. It can be reduced e.g. anemia, hypothyroidism, high altitude, Co2 increased, histotoxic hypoxia (cells cannot use 02) , oxygen-hemoglobin bond increased affinity, sleep apnea or lactic acid excess.
Suggested diet and micro nutrition advices 1
ReplyDeleteThe advices in nutrition and micro nutrition could be revised in the next follow up examination. The advices do not take care about the clinical context, current treatment and specific lifestyle such as vegetarian, athletes. The advices are issue from Recommended Dietary Allowances, 10th Edition. National Academy Press 1989-1999. ISBN: 0-309-04633-5 and the cross analysis of the ES Teck results and in particular the body composition and hemodynamic indicators.

The Cretan diet is recommended, based on:
Polyunsaturated acids are also essential at 10 g per day.
They are of 2 origins:
Plant origin: reduce bad cholesterol
- Linoleic acid: sunflower, corn, soy and peanut oil
- Alpha-linolenic: walnut, soy and rapeseed oil
Animal origin: reduce triglycerides and increase the fluidity of the blood
- In fish: EPA and DHA

• For cooking food: olive, peanut or palm oil, without ever allowing it to smoke.
• For improved digestion, advice for cooking : carrots, tomatoes, broccoli, spinach then add olive or colza oil after cooking.
• To prepare fish, marinate in lemon juice, wine or oil, then steam or poach in stock
• Do not burn or carbonize meat and throw away the gravy.
