It can not only store energy and protect viscera, but also regulate body temperature and maintain normal physiological function of human body. However, too much body fat is harmful to human body. It is always accompanied by Fatty Liver, diabetes, coronary heart disease, etc. Therefore self-measuring and self-monitoring body fat level are beneficial to your health. Since we can’t judge body fat level simply by our weight, this body fat analyzer , with BIA (Bio-impedance Analysis) technology applied, is an accurate device that offers a quick and comfortable way to obtain your body fat level.
