The Stress Test - Is Your Autonomic Nervous System Working Effectively?

A healthy heart does not beat evenly like a metronome. The gaps between the beats should be slightly irregular, particularly when we're relaxed and our nervous system is calm. When i asked you to do something that was mildly stressful, there's a drop, very large drop, in your heart rate variability. But almost immediately, you are able to bring your heartright variability back up. So would you determine from this that i am a fairly resilunt person? If so, please share your story with us on Twitter @dailymailonline or email editorial@dailymail.co.uk.
