Supergadget: how to analyze body composition at home?

Electronic floor scales are an accurate and modern way to analyze weight and other parameters. In today’s review, we will tell you about one of such gadgets.

The method of calculating human body composition is based on the results of medical research and scientific developments. A special device (MGB Body fat Scale analyzer) for determining body composition is able to determine the necessary parameters of the body. MGB Body fat Scale is also a “smart scale”, which means that the user has the opportunity to store the history of data and observe the dynamics of changes in the body, which is important in the process of weight loss or weight gain.

Technical “stuffing”

How it works.

When you stand on the scale platform, the monitor sends out weak, safe pulses of electric current that travel through your entire body. Since muscle tissue contains a large volume of water, it acts as a conductor of the electric current. Fatty tissues in turn contain a small amount of water and are objects of resistance to electrical impulses.

This is important: to determine the exact result, you must stand barefoot on the device and wait for the final measurement.

The final resistance of the various tissues of the body is compared with age, gender and weight. Based on this data, the gadget calculates basic body composition indicators.

The modern MGB Body fat Scale is based on a diagnostic method called bioimpedanceometry. In simple words, it is an analysis of the resistance of body tissues to a weak current.

This method is safe, but it is contraindicated for pregnant women and people who use a pacemaker.

The main advantages of bioimpedance analysis are:

• safety;
• speed;
• low cost.

Why measure the level of fat?

Body composition can be analyzed by dozens of parameters, but the main importance for a person is only some, and the level of fat is in the first place. The danger of excess fat mass is obvious, and not only for aesthetic reasons. Increased fat content affects the cardiovascular system and can provoke the development of diabetes, and these are just some of the possible risks.

Alternative ways to measure

There are several ways to measure fat, and bioimpedance technology, which is the basis of the scale, is certainly one of them. The benchmark method for analyzing body composition, on the other hand, is DEXA (densitometry) technology. This is a radiological study that can only be done in a clinical setting and is characterized by high data accuracy. However, there are disadvantages, among which first of all the high price.

What else does the floor smart scales MGB show?

Considerable attention of the developers is paid to the assessment of fat mass: these are both fat percentages, fat percentages in kilograms, and fat-free body mass analysis. However, it is worthwhile to tell more about other parameters as well.

• Bone mineral composition, or bone mass. One of the important indicators of the health of the body. To date, osteoporosis is steadily “gaining” the fame of the most common disease along with oncology, cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
• Muscle mass. A useful parameter for all those who are engaged in sports.
• Hydration. Also floor smart scale MGB Body fat Scale shows the level of body fluid.

Conclusion: we recommend paying attention to this gadget, because given the low price of the scales and their decent characteristics, they definitely deserve attention and appreciation from users.

The price of the question: 1990 rubles.
