So my playtime with the Helo is over..

I was given a Helo to play with from a friend.  It wasn't the new Lx, but the older version.  I have been on the fence about jumping in, as I don't know how to feel about multi level marketing.

I also was able to borrow an  older model for my own perusal to evaluate.. and found it to be relatively accurate with my blood pressure assessments.  It was only off 2-5 points when compared to the supermarket machine, So it did pass my inspection.

During the past month, I had been researching the product and technology, as I believe the features truly would be helpful to many of my patients.  I set up a free account with Helo, to get a view of the company from the inside.  The product I like...  and the company, seems like it is going through growing pains, but it is growing its support and infrastructure...

Also, I have had people placed under me by my sponsor and above...  Very positive outcome, as I tried one other MLM before, one I had to buy a bit of stuff to try to sell to family, and never had any help from my upline.

This company is a bit different, as you become involved as soon as you buy one.  There is no large purchase of stuff to sell, if you don't want as there is if you do want to do retail.  And you don't have to do anything, you can just be a user.

So, as I now walk about with an empty wrist I have decided to go forward and buy my own.  I am doing the basic, just one watch, as I like to take things slowly.  I will wear the HELO Lx, and show people I interact with the features if I think they would benefit or if they ask.

I will keep a running tab of my investment, and share the results with you so you may fully evaluate yourself.  When my Helo comes in, I will post a video showing the set up process and accuracy of the watch.  I will also discuss the economics of it and quality of the new units, including shipping times.

That's all for now, the trigger has been pulled.

Not all fitness trackers are equal...

When you are looking at a fitness band, we often buy the cheapest...  the one that barely performs what we wanted it to do, has no potential for expanding.  It's no wonder we become frustrated and stop using it.  Money wasted...   Sometimes, an investment in quality with the ability for upgrades is the better way to spend the money...  something that will meet your needs today, and in the future. Let me introduce you to HELO LX As you can see, the price point of Helo LX is comparable to the upper end fitness monitors.  But look at the features, especially the features being added! As you can see, Helo LX goes beyond a fitness tracker.  It is also the only one that is a business opportunity!  Just by buying a Helo LX, you become registered in the business...  all you have to do is share your personal website with anyone who asks about your bracelet....   Click here for more information!!

Author information 1 Department Signal Theory and Communications, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Campus Nord, Edifici D5, C/Jordi Girona, Barcelona, Spain. enric.monte@upc.edu Abstract OBJECTIVE: This work presents a system for a simultaneous non-invasive estimate of the  blood glucose  level (BGL) and the systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP)  blood  pressure, using a photoplethysmograph (PPG) and machine learning techniques. The method is independent of the person whose values are being measured and does not need calibration over time or subjects. METHODOLOGY: The architecture of the system consists of a photoplethysmograph sensor, an activity detection module, a signal

How I decided Helo Lx was not a scam...

Why Helo LX? That's what I asked myself after being introduced to the Helo LX bracelet... So here are my thoughts... My name is Bryan Kentner, DPM.  I'm a podiatrist, and as such I work with a large population of seniors.  My goal has always to keep my patients healthy, active and to allow them to remain independent for as long as possible. Many of my seniors live on their own, which sometimes cause an issue with their children.  In my practice, I would recommend Life alert type products to help alleviate some of these concerns.  The product required a 3 year contract, and had a $50 monthly fee...  and lacked some features I wanted... Along comes Helo LX...  At first glance, I wrote it off as a MLM scam fitbit with an SOS feature, marketing monitoring features that couldn't be real.  I researched the device, and what the sensors could, and could not do, expecting satisfaction that my first impression was indeed correct. However, I found it used the same sens
