Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA)
The Bodystat 1500MDD offers accurate body composition assessment and early cardiovascular risk detection. It’s an ideal weight management tool.
Bio-Impedance Analysis (BIA) devices have been used in many medical research studies and is proven to provide excellent levels of accuracy for ongoing health management.
The 1500MDD also boasts new powerful software with upgraded functionality and new early detection tools, covering everything from core cellular health to underlying disease and muscle wastage.
The importance of weight management has become increasingly topical over recent years
Obesity has been linked to the following diseases:
Coronary heart disease + Stroke
High blood pressure
Type 2 diabetes
Cancers, such as endometrial, breast, and colon cancer
High total cholesterol or high levels of triglycerides
Liver and gallbladder disease
Sleep apnea and respiratory problems
Mental health conditions
Degeneration of cartilage and underlying bone within a joint (osteoarthritis)
Reproductive health complications such as infertility
This BIA machine measures the following
- Body Fat % and Fat Weight
- Body Fat Percentage and Fat Weight
- Lean Mass Percentage and Lean Weight
- Water Percentage and Total Body Water
- Plus, Normal Levels for each of the above including ideal body weight based on the subject's actual body composition analysis
- Dry Lean Weight
- Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)* BMR/Body Weight
- Average Daily Calorie Requirement (Kcal/day)*
- Body Mass Index (BMI) - Plus Normal Range
- Waist/Hip Ratio
- Phase Angle
Did You Know?
Bioelectrical impedance is also a method used in cardiology to assess pulse wave velocity, another biomarker that determines the stiffness of the arteries to infer cardiovascular health.
