This week only! Maximize Health Goals with Our Medical Grade Body Composition Scanner for $19



A body composition scanner can be a game-changer when it comes to weight loss, maintaining muscle mass, reversing diabetes and fatty liver, or improving athletic performance.


💪 1. Weight Loss

  • Goes beyond the scale: Traditional scales only show total body weight. A body composition scanner reveals what that weight is made of—fat, muscle, bone, and water.

  • Targets fat loss, not just weight loss: Helps you ensure you’re losing body fat, not muscle or water weight (critical for those on GLP-1 weight loss medications!) Our scale can also measure visceral fat--the more serious fat around organs linked to health problems such as fatty liver.

  • Tracks progress accurately: You may not see a big change on the scale if you're gaining muscle and losing fat at the same time, but the scanner will show real progress.

  • Identifies plateaus: It can show if you're stuck because you're not losing fat, even if the scale hasn't changed.



🧱 2. Maintaining Muscle Mass

  • Monitors muscle changes: Shows whether you're maintaining or losing muscle mass during a calorie deficit or intense training.

  • Guides nutrition & training: Lets you know if you need more protein, strength training, or recovery to hold onto muscle. Allows your medical provider to better guide you on nutrition and health interventions.

  • Prevents overtraining or under-eating: If muscle mass is dropping, it's a sign your body might need a better plan.



🏃‍♂️ 3. Sports Performance

  • Optimizes body composition for performance: Athletes can use it to find the best lean mass-to-fat mass ratio for their sport.

  • Monitors hydration levels (on some models): Important for endurance and recovery.

  • Tracks gains over time: Measures muscle development in specific areas (like legs or arms), which is useful in sports like sprinting, swimming, or football.

  • Injury recovery: Keeps tabs on muscle loss from inactivity during rehab.



How Can It Help You?


Track Fat Loss vs. Weight Loss

  • Weight loss alone doesn’t tell you what you’re losing—could be muscle or water.

  • Body comp analysis shows if you’re losing fat and preserving muscle.

Monitor Muscle Gain or Loss

  • Crucial for:

    • Athletes

    • People recovering from injury

    • Those doing resistance training or cutting calories

Visceral Fat Awareness

  • Visceral fat (fat around organs) is a better indicator of chronic disease risk than just weight or BMI.

  • Our Medical Grade scale give you a visceral fat rating, which is helpful for metabolic health tracking in the context of liver and heart health, diabetes risks and more.

Tailor Your Nutrition & Training

  • Seeing more muscle? You’re probably eating and training right.

  • Losing muscle? Time to adjust your protein intake, calories, or workout intensity.

Motivation and Accountability

  • When the scale doesn’t budge but your body fat % drops, that’s progress!

  • Great for visualizing subtle improvements over time.

🧠 Pro Tips to Get the Most from a Body Comp Scale:

  • Measure under the same conditions each time (e.g., morning, fasted, no caffeine).

  • Don’t obsess over daily fluctuations—look for trends over weeks.

  • Pair it with progress pics, measurements, strength logs, and how you feel.
