New Medical Wellness Technology for Measuring High-Risk Lifestyle reviews how MET levels were used in the 1970s to indicate what constituted an appropriate level of physical activity for a particular person. The video also discusses those activities that have been traditionally representative of either an inactive or an active lifestyle. In that regard, the video points out how technology has evolved to a degree where it is currently able to monitor perhaps the most impactful high-risk factor—how sedentary a person has become.

The Role of Inflammation Testing & Building Resilience discusses the fact that 50% of heart attacks and strokes occur in people with 'normal' cholesterol levels. In that regard, the video points out that clinicians recognize that the primary pathology underlying cardiovascular disease is inflammation. Accordingly, the video reviews the need for inflammation testing, which involves a group of blood and urine tests that provide a complete picture o... The Role of Inflammation Testing & Building Resilience discusses the fact that 50% of heart attacks and strokes occur in people with 'normal' cholesterol levels. In that regard, the video points out that clinicians recognize that the primary pathology underlying cardiovascular disease is inflammation. Accordingly, the video reviews the need for inflammation testing, which involves a group of blood and urine tests that provide a complete picture of cardiovascular risk. Incorporating inflammation testing into health promotion programs can help identify apparently healthy people (with normal serum lipids) who are at near-term for a cardiovascular event. Such testing can also be used to monitor health status improvement. The video emphasizes the fact that inflammation testing provides sophisticated risk stratification that enables providers and payers to more accurately target health and wellness efforts.
