How Does Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis Work?
Measuring body composition (the amount of body mass made up of muscle, fat, water, etc) is essential to optimize individual health and care.
Several methods of measuring body composition exist, and all have pros and cons and practical applications in various settings. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a validated method to measure the difference in electrical conductivity between the body’s muscle and fat tissue.
