Analyze your body fat to use in conjunction with a health and fitness program. Instead of relying on regular bathroom scales, check out the cool features of body fat scales that will give you a body fat reading in addition to your weight. Body fat scales are now widely available at many stores and online.

A body fat scale uses the BIA or Bioelectric Impedance Analysis method of measurement. This is a low impact electrical signal. The signal passes through the body’s fluids but is hindered when trying to get through fatty tissues. The BIA reading helps the scale calculate your body fat measurement as well as body water percentage and current weight.
