What does this mean?

Neo,

Incase you are asking about ES, I was abbreviating Eight Sleep = ES

But, I think you are asking about the zipping part…

The mattress cover they sell is a case that zips around your existing mattress. The top portion contains the water tubes. The rest of it serves no purpose other than to keep it formed tightly to your mattress.

Once you zip it up, if you have a soft mattress, it’s tight enough that it changes how soft your existing mattress feels… it will become firm. So, I simply leave it unzipped and then it’s as if it’s just resting on my mattress. I’ve done this since day one and it’s never been a problem.

My new Orion ships this month, so I’ll be back to give it a review. I expect it to be every bit as good, but??

It’s available and used widely – Non-invasive Hb trackers can also indicate hydration levels (there are many).

This is not newsworthy but just a plug for the Apple Watch.

I was sitting next to a friend at dinner who was just gifted an Apple Watch. He said I need to get one, and my reply was I’m not sure I want to spend the money yet because I already have an oura ring and I keep waiting for the next gen Apple Watch that will have more health safety features….

He shared that he put on his new watch and was immediately told he has AFIB! Zero symptoms. He called his doc and was asked to send the info from the watch. The doc said I could have you go to the hospital but the readings from the watch are good enough I don’t feel you need to…

My husband has a watch, so I’m thinking I’ll at least put his on once every week or two incase it tells me anything.

It costs like $212 used on Backmarket (Watch 9 for hypertension notifications as well) and you’ll have features like fall, crash detection, automatic calling emergency services and emergency contacts if fall detected and unconscious, afib, best sleep tracking if you use it for that, temperature, now they have sleep score. You need an iPhone. It’s a cheap solution to improve health for elderly so get it for your parents or grandparents. Tell them to wear it during the night and charge it everyday in the day.
