What is the Bioelectrical Impedance Method?
Bioelectrical Impedance (BI) is considered one of the most accurate and
accessible methods of screening body fat. Muscles, blood vessels and bones
are body tissues having a high water content that conduct electricity
easily. Body fat is tissue that has little electric conductivity. The
Body Fat Analyzer sends an extremely weak electrical current through your
body to determine the amount of fat tissue. The weak electrical current
is not felt while operating the Body Fat Analyzer. The body fat percentage
is calculated by a formula that includes five factors; electric resistance,
height, weight, age and gender. (Back to Top)
