What’s your health score?
You’re not familiar with it now, but you soon will be — and it will probably help save your life one day.
You know how to read and write, speak to other people, count, and tell time, and you probably take these for granted. This happens because once you learn how to do certain things, they are easy. And they are easy because language, math, time, and many other things that now seem natural to you have universal rules and guidelines.
Similarly, your body has universal rules and guidelines and constantly sends out messages — some of which you can interpret yourself at particular times, like when you feel tired if you don’t get enough sleep, when you feel woozy after having one too many drinks, or when your muscles feel sore a day after an intense workout.
But there are many more that you can’t interpret—such as an elevated pulse, sudden palpitations, the toxin levels in your liver, your changing bloodstream composition, the glucose level, and so on. And you can only find out if your vitals are within range only if you go to a doctor every now and then. Or when you feel ill and it’s already too late. Your body doesn’t take a snapshot of your health every 6 months or so when you go to a doctor. That’s not ideal.
The good news is that your body is constantly keeping tabs on your well-being.
The great news is that it uses a universal system of rules, guidelines, and triggers to asses your overall health.
The best news is that we captured and interpreted this information and are now able to calculate a type of health score that is both universal and makes sense for you.
And we do it in a way that has never been done before.
We capture this information using wearables and other smart devices, and we’re gradually adding more sources and tools. We want to help you take your health score for granted and use it several times a day, just like you use time itself. You know that in order to arrive at a place at a certain time you need to have a certain pace — speed up or slow down. Similarly, you will know that in order to keep your score above a certain threshold that is ideal for you, you’ll have to take certain actions. You will know what and how because we’ll constantly be there to help.
It’s widely accepted that once you measure something, you can improve it. And we want to make this process as easy and friction-less as possible for you.
This is another of our contributions to global healthcare and we hope to have you along for the ride.
We are building Neveli, the digital healthcare platform that interprets your body’s signals in order to help you better understand and manage your health. We’re incredibly passionate about making everyone healthier and we’d love you to help us in our mission. You should sign up for early access here.
