In the second portion of this two-part episode on The Red Light Report, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Biostrap's Chief Science Officer, Kevin Longoria, where we take a deeper dive into biometrics, heart rate variability and the exciting results of the research study BioLight recently completed with Biostrap Labs. In the study, we ended up garnering different results than we initially hypothesized, but may have yielded results that are actually far more exciting and carry profound implications for your overall health -- especially considering the fast-paced, hectic world we live in today. Listen to this episode to find out what we discovered about BioLight panels and uncovered about red light therapy!

 

Kevin is an expert in the field of Clinical Physiology with an emphasis in cardiopulmonary and nervous system-based approaches to optimizing health and athletic performance. Early in his career as Chief Science Officer for a progressive neuroscience company, Kevin led validation studies and developed and implemented nervous system-based training systems for various populations ranging from severely compromised health to corporate wellness initiatives and professional athletic organizations.

Kevin’s passion for research and education has led to his role as an international public educator for health and fitness professionals. He has also been a physiological consultant for various progressive health technologies with applications in the field of proactive and integrative healthcare management.

Kevin’s recent accomplishments include leading training camps for various World Champion combat athletes, such as UFC World Champion Henry Cejudo, being a keynote speaker at the 35th anniversary of the International Congress of Sports Medicine as well as developing various algorithms and secured patents for Muscle Optimization Modulation and a predictive algorithm development for respiratory illness including COVID-19. Kevin is also on a Scientific Advisory Board Member of the National Academy of Sports Medicine.

Currently, Kevin is the Chief Science Officer of Biostrap, a digital health company that has evolved from being a consumer wearable into a comprehensive health monitoring platform with a mission to improve human health on a global scale.


You are going to gain some great insight into how you can optimize your health with biometrics and also how a simple ten-minute treatment with BioLight can dramatically decrease your stress. Enjoy! - Dr. Mike Belkowski & Kevin Longoria discuss the following:
  • His background in health and wellness
  • How biometrics can play a role in day-to-day decision making for your health
  • Heart rate variability (HRV) and its importance and health implications
  • Parasympathetic vs sympathetic systems
  • Seasonal changes in HRV
  • Changes in HRV based on daylight savings
  • Stressors of daily life that affect biometrics and HRV the most
  • Recovery from daily stressors
  • How alcohol affects HRV
  • The research study Biolight did with Biostrap Labs
  • The interesting results of the aforementioned study
  • Where they would like to see more studies in terms of red light therapy
  • How consumers have to dig deep to find verified products
