Do you wear any kind of fitness tracker? On this podcast, Dr Torkil Færø joins Liz to share how wearable pieces of tech can help us better understand our heart rate variability (HRV), and ultimately live a longer and healthier life.

Torkil explains what our HRV can tell us about what's going on in our bodies - and how it this number can even alert you to serious health issues such as heart attacks and disease.

Liz and Torkil discuss how we can optimise our HRV with our diet, exercise and lifestyle tweaks such as cold showers, supplements and fasting - plus, the impact alcohol can have here.

The episode also covers how having a positive attitude to ageing may be able to help you live longer.
