In the context of increasingly busy modern life, many people tend to pay more attention to personal health, especially issues related to cardiovascular disease, stress or aging. However, not everyone has the time or conditions to regularly monitor their health at a medical facility.
To meet this need, the Galaxy Watch8 Series integrates in-depth health monitoring tools such as Vascular Load and Quick Antioxidant Measure, helping users access health information intuitively, easily understood and conveniently in daily life.
Support for detecting blood pressure
One of the notable features of the Galaxy Watch8 Series is the Vascular Load feature. This is an index that reflects the level of stress on the circulatory system during each stage of rest, especially when sleeping, thereby showing how well the vascular system is working to maintain blood circulation.

Unlike blood pressure, which requires a separate measuring device, the pressure reading is collected passively while the user sleeps, provided the watch is worn continuously for at least three nights to establish a baseline. Once set, the watch tracks changes in pressure throughout the night and displays comparisons over time. This helps users detect early trends in pressure that may be related to a sedentary lifestyle, poor sleep quality, or chronic stress.

Based on the Vascular Load index, users can monitor their body condition to adjust their lifestyle. |
This feature is not intended to diagnose disease but acts as an early warning tool, encouraging users to adjust their lifestyle more appropriately. For example, if the Vascular Load index is constantly high, it may be a sign that the body needs to rest on time or reduce work pressure. Thereby, users have more references about the body's circulatory status, consider adjusting lifestyle habits such as rest, exercise or appropriate stress management.
Measure antioxidant index, make recommendations
The Galaxy Watch8 Series is one of the few wearable devices today that integrates the antioxidant index measurement feature - a parameter related to the body's ability to protect against harmful environmental agents and metabolism. This feature works based on the user placing a finger on the sensor on the side of the watch for a few seconds. After completing the measurement, the device gives results under three levels: Very low, medium and sufficient.

Unlike the general health score, which is often a general reference, the antioxidant data will link directly to dietary recommendations. For example, if the result shows low levels, the watch will suggest the user increase the amount of specific foods such as zucchini, lettuce or apples - vegetables that naturally contain antioxidants.
Notably, users can continue to interact with the Gemini assistant on the watch to ask for more information about the suggested suitable dish. In this case, when advised to add apples and green vegetables, users can ask the assistant to provide a suitable dish recipe. Gemini suggests that users prepare a zucchini salad with apple lettuce, then save it to the note application for later use. Thanks to that, the experience does not stop at receiving information, but also extends to a specific chain of actions, from consulting - learning - applying - remembering.

Data from the antioxidant feature will link directly to nutritional recommendations. |
Integrating health measurement with artificial intelligence shows that the product development orientation is not only focused on data, but also on practical application. From there, users can easily adjust their living habits without needing in-depth knowledge.

With two new features: measuring blood pressure and antioxidant index, Galaxy Watch8 Series shows a new approach to supporting personal health care. Instead of focusing on dry medical data, the device aims to provide easy-to-understand information, specific suggestions and deeply integrate support tools such as AI assistant.
