How does the BC1 Body Composition Analyzer work?
The BC1 Body Composition Analyzer uses bio-impedance technology, a state-of-the art, very accurate method of determining body mass. The device sends a mild electrical current through your body, measuring both the strength and speed of the return current. From these readings, the software calculates your body mass. The device is safe, but you should not use it if you are pregnant or have an implanted electrical medical device such as a pacemaker.
