Body Fat Testing

Using Bioelectrical Impedance (BI) Method, that sends an extremely low-level electrical current of 50 kHz and 500 µA through your body to determine the amount of fat tissue. This weak current is safe and not felt while operating the Fat Loss Monitor.  It takes less than 5 minutes. Why? Identifying a baseline measurement and monitoring your progress and the effectiveness of your exercise program can provide incentive and motivation to improve your health.
