WARNING
People with pacemakers or other types of electronic implants should
not use this product because the measuring method of the
resistance might interfere with its good functioning.
This product is suitable for adults and children of age 10 or older.
If you have any doubt about the use of this product, please consult
your physician.
The scale uses the Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) method to
measure the body fat, the total body water, the bone mass and the
muscular mass.
BIA = the scale has electrodes measuring the body electric
resistance (muscles offer less resistance than fat, and that can be
correlated with the body weight).
The integrated computer calculates the body fat and other data
percentages based on age, sex and height.
This method is quick, sure and accurate and gives a result within 30
seconds.
The scale has a memory for 10 persons at most, which allows the
whole family to use it without having to re-enter all data at every use.
WHY IS MEASURING THE BODY FAT (BF) SO
IMPORTANT?
For years, obesity has been defined as the presence of superfluous
« body fat ».
It is not a matter of sheer body weight. Some people have a strong
proportion of fat balanced with muscular mass, and some slim
people experience a large increase of body fat.
The « body fat » is an important part of the human body and it deals
with a certain number of essential tasks: protecting our joints, storing
vitamins, regulating our body temperature…
However, fat may contribute to a lot of stress for the human body
(particularly for the cardiovascular system) and may also lead to
diabetes.
The goal is not only to reduce fat as much as possible, but rather to
reach and maintain a good rate between muscular mass and body
fat.
