Swallowing saliva and real-time heart rate variability (HRV)

There is plenty of hype around measuring HRV all the time. Despite having developed tools for HRV analysis years before any wearable even existed, we don’t do “real-time stress estimation” at HRV4Training. Why is that? When monitoring HRV, and measuring intentionally (e.g. first thing in the morning, as an assessment of our resting physiology), we control what we can to ensure the measurement is representative of what we are interested in: parasympathetic modulation as a proxy of the stress response.
