Have You Checked Your Body Fat? The percentage of fat in the body can be determined in several ways, the most advanced being the bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA). The BIA uses mild electrical currents to locate and measure body fat. This test is available to clients of the Alpha Wellness Clinic and is necessary for any client who may wish to stay on medication for more than 3 months. This test must be done during your initial visit and may be repeated throughout this period. The Body Fat Analyzer Determines Your: • Weight • Fat Mass - Ideal range of fat mass. • Desirable Range Fat % - Ideal range of fat percent. • TBW - A water weight (50% - 70% of body weight). • LBM - Body weight without fat (muscle, water, bone). • Fat Mass - The weight of fat in the body. • Fat % - How much fat the body contains compared to body weight. • Body Mass Index (weight/height squared). The standard is 22. • Impedance - The electrical resistance which the body contains. If the amount of muscle increases, this number will be lower because the electricity goes easily through the muscle.
