YOGYAKARTA - Health is a very valuable asset. With a smartwatch drive, you can protect your health and detect some health problems early. Who would have thought it turned out to be a health condition that smartwatches could detect!

Launching from several sources, the following are benefits that you can have by wearing a smartwatch. But remember, wearing a smartwatch doesn't mean you are free to make an annual medical check-up, huh.

1. A one-on-one lifestyle

Almost all smartwatches will take a very long time to sit. Such work is in front of a laptop, eating at a table, not walking all day can be related to health problems such as obesity until it is slashed.

2. Fibrillation atrium

Atrium fibrillation or known with heart rhythm disorders can also be detected early with smartwatch drive. To find out properly the signs of atrium fibrillation, your smartwatch must have an electrocardiogram function (EKG), which records a small electrical signal produced by heart rate.

You can find this feature in the latest smartwatches from Apple, Samsung, Fitbit and Withings, and they can see signs of atrium fibrillation that can warn if you feel you are required to ask a doctor.

3. Sleep apnea

The condition of sleep apnea allows sufferers to face respiratory arrests for a while when they fall asleep. Sleep apnea is often associated with high blood pressure until the risk of stroke increases.

With smartwatches that can carry out feature screening, one of which is blood oxygen saturation sensor (Spo2), sleep can be monitored properly.

4. Stress

Don't underestimate it because thoughts often become the origin of a disease. The stress of the mind can lead to problems with high blood pressure, problems with fertility, sleeplessness, increased risk of heart attacks, and other health.

5. Diabetes

Some smartwatches such as Fitbits have a CGM (continuous glucose monitoring) feature that can measure glucose levels in the body. By guarding the content of glucose, you can stay away from excess sugar consumption which can increase the risk of diabetes.
