Body composition analysis is a method used to evaluate the distribution of different components within the body. It provides a breakdown of the body into various compartments, such as Total Body fat percent, visceral fat, Total body mass, bone mass, and water content. There are several methods used for body composition analysis, including Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA), bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), skinfold thickness measurements, and hydrostatic weighing, among others.
This analysis helps assess the relative proportions of these components & Beneficial for Personalized Diet and Exercise Plans. While loosing our weight our major concern should be actually what we are loosing……muscle,water, or fat ?.
