Instruction Manual

Handheld Body

Fat Analyzer

How the Body Fat Analyzer Works:

This instrument uses BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis). BIA is one of the most
accurate methods of measuring body fat and works by sending a harmless electrical signal
through the fat and muscle in your body. This method calculates your personal body fat
percentage, thus giving you an accurate reading of your overall health and fitness. The
display on the bottom will also show your general health condition.

Why it is Important to Measure Your Body Fat:

Body fat percentage is a vital measure of your overall health and fitness. Research has
shown that healthy body fat levels can help reduce your risk of developing serious health
related problems, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease and diabetes.
