Tanita BF350 (BF-350) Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA)
Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis "weighs" each of the different kinds of tissue in your body. It measures the amount of muscle and other lean tissue, like your organs, and the amount of fat and water in your body. Bioelectrical impedance analysis is based on the conductive and non-conductive properties that exist in biological tissues. Most of the body's fat-free mass is composed of conductive tissues such as muscle, while fat is part of the non-conductive tissue mass. The volume of these tissues can be estimated from the measurement of the resistance to an applied electric current flowing through the body.

The volume of these tissues can be estimated from the measurement of the resistance to an applied electric current flowing through the body.

BIA measures the impedance or resistance to the signal as it travels through the water that is found in muscle and fat. The more muscle a person has, the more water their body can hold. The greater the amount of water in a person's body, the easier it is for the current to pass through it. The more fat, the more resistance to the current. BIA is safe and it does not hurt. In fact, the signal used in body fat monitors can not be felt at all either by an adult or child.

Warning: Do not use the body fat monitor function of this product if you have a pacemaker, or other implanted medical device.
