Health and wellness tech company, Pulsetto, has shared their research results indicating that biohackers can achieve greater sleep optimization with vagus nerve stimulation.

The company’s recently published research focused on the evidence-based strategies that health enthusiasts can use at home to boost recovery times and increase productivity by getting a better night’s sleep.

Although perhaps one of the seemingly easier health goals to achieve, a recommended seven hours of sleep per night is an often overlooked part of overall health and wellbeing, explains Pulsetto. Research published by Harvard University showed the substantive negative impact poor sleep has on chronic health conditions, mental health, and overall longevity. The study showed that those getting less than five hours of rest per night were at a 15% higher risk of mortality than their more well-rested counterparts (1). This, says Pulsetto, underlines the important role that sleep plays in overall health and well-being.
Pulsetto’s research outlines the strategies that high-profile biohackers use to optimize their sleep. The company found that those with a consistently good night’s rest observed a sleep schedule that worked with the body’s natural circadian rhythm.
Successful sleepers also created a calm environment which was dark, cool, and quiet. They also avoided exposure to the blue light emitted by electronic screens — which affects melatonin production and disrupts the body’s sleep/wake cycle — in the hours before bedtime.
On the other end of the spectrum, getting enough exposure to light during the early part of the day is just as important, according to Pulsetto. They suggest exposure to sunlight in the morning can help the body establish a clearly defined wake window.
“The costs of poor sleep often go unnoticed, but can they add up over time to some serious health consequences, both mentally and physically. That’s why biohackers are so focused on strategies to optimize healthy sleep patterns,” explained a spokesperson for Pulsetto. “We examined many of these methods, and our research showed that vagus nerve stimulation was one of the best ways to reset the body’s nervous system for a better night’s sleep.”
Vagus nerve stimulation can help reduce stress and improve sleep by resetting the body’s fight or flight response, thus creating the optimum setting for a full night’s rest.
Pulsetto’s vagus nerve stimulator works by emitting a low-level electrical pulse to stimulate the nerve as it passes through the neck. Its wearable, hands-free design is unique to Pulsetto, making the device easy to use and control via a phone app. Vagus nerve stimulation is considered safe for most users, however, Pulsetto does advise those with underlying health conditions to consult a medical practitioner before starting any new treatments.
