Body Composition Analysis

HomeBody Composition Analysis

Body composition analysis goes far beyond what a regular weighing scale can tell you, breaking down your weight into muscle mass, body fat percentage, water content, and visceral fat around your organs. This gives you and our doctors a much clearer picture of your true health than body weight alone, since two people of the same weight can have very different body compositions. AG Lifecare Clinic uses a bioelectrical impedance device to measure these values quickly and comfortably, with no needles or discomfort involved. This test is useful for anyone tracking a fitness or weight management goal, monitoring muscle loss with age, or simply wanting a more detailed baseline of their health.

Who Should Consider This

  • Anyone starting or tracking a fitness or weight management programme
  • Individuals monitoring the effects of diet or exercise changes
  • Patients being assessed for metabolic health
  • Anyone wanting a clearer picture of their overall body composition

What to Expect During Your Visit

To get accurate results, we recommend avoiding heavy exercise, alcohol, and large meals for a few hours before your appointment. During the test, you simply stand on the device barefoot while holding the handgrips, and a gentle, unnoticeable electrical signal passes through your body to measure its composition. The whole process takes less than five minutes and produces a detailed printout of your results immediately. Our team will then go through the report with you, explaining what a healthy range looks like for your age and gender, and how your results relate to any fitness or health goals you may have.

Frequently Asked Questions About Body Composition Analysis

Is body composition analysis accurate for very muscular or very lean individuals?

Bioelectrical impedance devices are generally reliable across most body types, though extreme muscularity or leanness can occasionally affect precision slightly. Our team will discuss your results in the context of your specific body type and goals.

Can this test be done during pregnancy?

We do not recommend bioelectrical impedance testing during pregnancy, as the results are not considered reliable in this condition. Please let our team know if you are pregnant so we can suggest alternative ways to monitor your health.

Will drinking water before the test affect my results?

Yes, hydration levels can influence your reading. We recommend a consistent routine, such as testing at a similar time of day and avoiding excessive fluid intake just before your appointment, for the most comparable results over time.

Body composition analysis pairs well with our functional medicine consultations and health screening packages. See our full range of services or check our pricing.

We recommend repeating this test every few months if you are actively working on a fitness or weight goal, so you can track real changes in muscle and fat rather than relying on the scale alone.
