If you wear an Oura Ring, Apple Watch, or Whoop, you're generating data that reveals important information about your biological aging trajectory. Two metrics — sleep quality and HRV — are increasingly recognized as meaningful longevity biomarkers.

HRV: Your Nervous System Report Card

Heart rate variability measures the variation between heartbeats. Higher HRV generally indicates a more resilient nervous system. HRV naturally declines with age, but exercise, sleep optimization, and stress management can slow or reverse this decline.

Sleep Architecture and Aging

Deep sleep is when growth hormone is released and tissues are repaired. Deep sleep declines from about 20% of total sleep in your 20s to as little as 5% by age 60. Protecting deep sleep is one of the most impactful longevity interventions.

Connecting Devices to Clyne

When you sync your wearable data with Clyne, your provider gets a complete picture of how your body responds to treatment. Sleep, HRV trends, and recovery patterns all inform treatment decisions.
