Your BIO-IMPEDENCE ANALYSIS (BIA) shows your measurement of body fat in relation to lean body muscle mass. A BIA is usually performed during your physical exam, which is commonly your second visit with Dr. Emina.
You will also learn:
- How toxic your body is
- If you are drinking enough water
- How many calories you are burning in a day
- Your real age vs. your chronological age
- If you are burning fat or muscle
- How healthy your cells are
Excess body fat can greatly increase the risk of heart disease, diabetes, cancer, etc. Lowering your body fat helps reduce the risk of a variety of serious health conditions. Help your body to function properly for healthy aging!
