Bioelectrical Impedence Analysis, or Bio-Impedence Analysis, commonly known as B.I.A. is a method of assessing your body composition; which is the ratio between fat and lean body mass. As an integral part of health and nutrition assessment, BIA can assist health practicitioners in numerous ways. Excess body fat in relation to lean body mass, a condition known as 'altered body composition', can greatly increase your risks to cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and other chronic illnesses.

BIA fosters early detection of an improper balance in your body composition, which allows prevention, and, if necessary, intervention, to counteract negative health effects. BIA also serves to measure your progress as you work to inmprove your health.
