The New Path to Cardiovascular Fitness & Overall Health – PAI Health | Sally Powell & Dr. Carl Lavie

PAI Health’s mission is to become the new global standard for
physical activity. And they are well on their way …


Everyone knows that physical activity is correlated with overall
health, but have you ever wondered exactly how much activity is
enough to keep your heart and body optimally healthy?


Enter PAI Health. The Personal Activity Intelligence (PAI) index
is based on an algorithm that transforms heart rate data into a
standardized, scientifically validated measure of cardiovascular
fitness. The app is available for free to general consumers via
an app store, and it’s also device agnostic so it will work with
any platform that integrates PAI (disclaimer: I have it with my
Fitbit).


PAI points can be gained through ANY physical activity that
increases your heart rate. The higher your heart rate, the more
PAI points you earn. Most importantly, maintaining 100 PAI on
average over a 7-day period can dramatically improve your health
and longevity. And it is personalized and adaptable to each
individual’s level of physical fitness!


Originally developed by a research team based at the Norwegian
University of Science and Technology (NTNU), the PAI index is now
backed by numerous peer-reviewed studies and is based on hundreds
of thousands of individuals and well over a million person-years
of data.


PAI Health has also developed unique solutions for insurers,
employers and healthcare providers. In addition to a growing
impact in the insurance and corporate wellness program markets,
they are also focusing on cardiovascular health among diabetes
patients, and are also pursuing solutions for engaging patients
in clinical trials.
