Guidelines for a precise measurement with InBody 570
The analysis should ideally be carried out before exercise and on an empty stomach and bladder.
The analysis should not be carried out after a shower or the use of a sauna as sweat and heat causes a temporary change in conductivity within the body.
Wear comfortable clothing, ideally removing any items with metal zippers, snaps, fasteners, belts and underwire bras. Please also remove all jewellery where possible.
To effectively track and monitor results, subsequent testing should be carried out under similar conditions (i.e. similar clothing, testing time, before eating or exercising etc).
Thoroughly wipe the palms and soles with the InBody tissue before testing.
It is important to note that body composition results will be affected in the case of pregnancy, breast augmentation, irremovable piercing, metal plates, pins, screws, metal prosthetic joints or where a pacemaker, defibrillator or nerve stimulator are present. It is not advised to scan if you are pregnant or have a pacemaker.
Avoid contact and talking during the analysis, this may lead to interference affecting test results. We always suggest a qualified health care professional should be consulted to effectively evaluate your overall scan, particularly if any abnormalities are noted.
