HRV Device Trials
Bryan trialed three vagus-nerve / vibrational devices to improve HRV with limited sustained effect.
Assembled by Cited from Bryan Johnson's recorded recommendations across multiple sources. It is not an ordered program and was not created or endorsed by them — it's our grouping of what they've said on the record.

In a protocol
Bryan tried Sensate, a vibrational chest device, to improve HRV, with only minor non-sustained effect.

Bryan tried Pulsetto vagus-nerve vibration device for HRV with only minor non-sustained effect.

Bryan used a left-tragus vagus-nerve stimulator for HRV with only minor non-sustained effect.

How this protocol has evolved
All three gave only minor, non-sustained effect; Bryan still looking for something more effective.
