2000 BIA, Bioimpedance Analyzer |
|
With the investment of this new non invasive analytical apparatus,
We are able to objectively
measure and monitor key indicators of health.
These measurements increase the certainty of accurately
understanding a persons condition and allows us to better prioritize
nutrition and supplement programs and strategies. The effectiveness
of these programs can then be monitored and further refined with
follow-up testing.
The use of bioimpedance testing to monitor the effect of
supplements on the reduction of body fat and the increase in lean
body mass has been accurately demonstrated in several human clinical
studies.

What Information Can Be
Measured? |
| The Biodynamics
Analyzer measures body fat, lean body mass, fat weight, basal
metabolic rate, body mass index, phase angle,
and hydration status broken down into intra-cellular water
vs. extra-cellular water.
This information can be used to develop personalized diet and
exercise programs. Although
the information gained
from the initial test offers tremendous insight into ones internal
health status, the follow-up tests are even more valuable as we can
tract anabolic (building) or catabolic (break down) trends. |

|
How Does This Devise Work? |
| Measuring the changes
in electrical tissue conductivity,
allows for the detection of altered body composition. Highly
sensitive electrodes measure reactance and resistance as conducted
throughout the body. Through
a series of complex mathematical calculations a phase angle is
determined. This
measurement has been labeled as one of the best predictors of health
and vitality, and is a direct measurement of the health of your
cells. Test results are accurate to within 0.1% of resistance, and
0.2% of reactance and phase angle. |

|
What Are The Benefits? |
|
From
the testing results programs will be developed to Improve:
Body
Hydration Status
Cell Health
Status
Nutrition
Status
Longevity Status
Throughout
the monitoring process nutritional adjustments can be made with more
certainty, resulting in more energy, weight loss through improved
body composition and an overall improved health and well-being. |

How To Arrange For Testing? |
| By appointment anyone
can arrange to have the testing done.
There are certain preparations to ensure best test results,
these guidelines will be explained when making the appointment.
Some precautions must be taken in you have any implantable
electronic device or are diagnosed with heart problems.
Schedule at least one week in advance.
The actual procedure takes only a few minutes, however
preparation and evaluation may take up to ½ hour.
Follow-up testing again is very quick but time must be aloud
for discussion, nutritional and supplement advise. |
| |
|
How Much Does The Test Cost? |
| The actual test and
re-testing is only $20.00, however consultation time is billed at
$25.00 per half hour. As a nutritional client the fee for testing is only $15.00
and the time is included within the consultation time. |

| The
Bioimpedance Analysis includes a number of measurements that give us
an in-depth look at ones current state of health.
Experience in the use of this devise has proven to be a
valuable and accurate analysis for assessing risk of serious
preventable disease.
From the information gained by its use we have been able to
develop a fitness and nutrition program that, over time has reduced
risk.
