That sounds interesting Izzy but I’m not sure how I feel about being monitored all the time. I’ve given up with my smart watch as it made my wrist sweat
Hate those plastic straps.

I like my Apple Watch! I use a material strap on it though.

Mine’s a cheap watch. I’m thinking about getting a decent one - if I can find one without a plastic strap..

You can get cheap straps on Amazon for Apple Watch. I change mine quite regularly!

An interesting idea, but I wonder how accurate it would be?
It would take decades before useful information was obtained.

Intresting idea, I'd worry information might be used in wrong way, don't know how, but its always a worry. But then again if dont try things we wont know what we can find out and what can be done to help. And something surely can be done, or at least I hope so, it just needs to be found.
