When it comes to understanding your health, there's more to the story than just weight and BMI. For a more complete picture of your wellness, it's time to get familiar with phase angle, a powerful indicator of your cellular health and overall vitality.
What is Phase Angle?
Phase angle is a metric derived from bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). It reflects the health and integrity of your cell membranes. Think of it like a cellular report card:
Higher phase angles indicate strong, well-hydrated cells and good nutritional status.
Lower phase angles may signal weakened or compromised cells.
Why Should You Care About Phase Angle?
Muscle Health Phase angle is a reliable marker of muscle quality. It's especially useful in identifying early signs of sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss), enabling proactive interventions.
Diabetes Screening Segmental phase angles can help differentiate between diabetic and non-diabetic individuals, offering a non-invasive, efficient screening option.
A More Complete Health Snapshot Unlike BMI, phase angle considers more than just weight. When combined with body composition data (like muscle and fat mass), it provides a holistic view of your health, aiding in the creation of personalised wellness plans.
How Do You Measure It?
Advanced tools like the Checkup Scan make measuring phase angle easy, accurate and non-invasive. This high-tech assessment station evaluates:
