BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis)
This is a method for the estimation of how much body fat is present in a person, by passing a safe electric current through their body.
Bioelectrical Impedance, or BIA. This technique uses a machine that sends harmless and painless electricity through a person's body to "weigh" each of the different kinds of tissue in their body.
Nowadays, we use bioelectric monitors (which use bioelectrical impedance analysis or BIA), which give a fast, simple and accurate body fat percentage.
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) (im-PEE-dance) A way to estimate the amount of body weight that is fat and nonfat. Nonfat weight comes from bone, muscle, body water, organs, and other body tissues.
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)—A technique for evaluating body composition by passing a small amount of electrical current through the body and measuring the resistance of different types of tissue.
Use of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) measurements in the clinical management of malnutrition. Am J Clin Nutr 64:S485-S488. Pencharz BP, House JD, Wykes LJ, Ball RO. 1996. What are the essential amino acids for the preterm and term infant?
