BIOIMPEDANCE ANALYSIS
Bioimpedance scales, dieting is not only important to lose weight, but how you lose it!
In Tisanoreica, through activation of the metabolic pathway of ketosis that occurs during the Intensive Phase, the body is forced toward selective utilization of fat for energy. Thanks to theutilizzo della bilancia di precisione bioimpedenziometrica you can precisely monitor this change in fat mass and keep your body composition controlled for a long time. In less than a minute, in a standing position and without electrode pads you can measure your parameters of:
BIA Tanita
BIA Tanita, being also a medical-certified scale, can automatically provide the measurement of BMI, which is the ratio of weight expressed in kilograms to the square of height expressed in meters. BMI is the most widely used index worldwide to define the degree of overweight/obesity (an individual is considered overweight if BMI>25).
Fat mass (MG):
A certain amount of fat is needed as an energy reserve and as protection for internal organs. Good physique assumes a MG value of 15-23% relative to body weight.
Â
Lean mass (MM)
It includes everything that is not body fat (protein, water, minerals, and glycogen), and good physique assumes a MM value of 77-85% of body weight.
Â
Muscle mass (MMusc):
It includes everything that is not body fat (protein, water, minerals, and glycogen), and good physique assumes a MM value of 77-85% of body weight.
Â
Total water:
On average, total body water accounts for 60-62% of weight in men and 56-58% in women.
Total water is the main component of MM. Under physiological conditions, its percentage of MM can range from 67.4% to 77.5% depending on age and nutritional status.
Phase angle:
Electrical parameter expressing the proportion of intracellular to extracellular space. It is directly related to the integrity of cell membranes. In a healthy individual, the value of phase angle ranges between 5 and 7 degrees. Phase angle decreases as cell mass decreases and is useful for assessing nutritional status.
Visceral fat index:
Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT = Visceral Adipose Tissue) is fat that accumulates in the abdominal cavity and around internal organs. VAT is thought to be more likely to cause lifestyle diseases than subcutaneous adipose tissue (SCAT), so knowing and periodically monitoring the risk of VAT accumulation is an important guide in preventing lifestyle diseases.
