Nice one Nick. Another of these focused on improving health for over 50's would be great, and also one about cholesterol would be fantastic too. :-)
Nice job, Incrementalist. I didn’t know you we’re gearing some videos directly to a consumer/patient audience as opposed to health nerds. Cool.
Great stuff Nick!!
I like it!
Just as I suspected! Thanks for this wonderful information.
These are initial thoughts that can contribute towards the algorithm for accuracy and given we have exisiting data available in abundance globally we can corroborate and verify through other factors too coming back the other way via enviromental data and its impact on health
Hey Doc, great article. We at The physicians weigh assess are clients using Bio impedance analysis. When a clients BMI is high, it’s usually due to being either over muscle or high Body fat mass. So we encourage our clients like you suggested, to strength train and do cardio exercises.Muscle burns fat and muscle out weighs fat..... thanks for the video!!!!
