Health and well-being are closely tied to the health of the body’s fat free mass and body cell mass compartments. By focusing attention on these essential compartments through a body composition analysis, therapeutic strategies are more effective because important results can be measured objectively. The Body Scan Analyzer provides a direct readout of the impedance of the human body, and estimates of fat mass, fat-free mass (lean body mass), body cell mass, extracellular mass, total body water, intracellular water, and extracellular water. For more information, read the Fact Sheet. Test preparations:
- No alcohol within 24 hours
- No exercise for 4 hours
- Avoid caffeine or food for 4 hours
- Make sure to consume 14-24 ounces of water within 2 hours
