Muscles, blood vessels and bones are body tissues having a high water content that conduct electricity easily. Body fat is tissue that has little electric conductivity. The monitor sends an extremely weak electrical current through your body to determine the amount of fat tissue. Theweakelectrical current is not felt while operating the Body Fat Analyzer. The monitoris calculated by a formula thatincludes five factors; electric resistance,height,weight,ageandgender. br bWhat is visceral fat? /b br Visceral fat is located around the organs. Too much visceral fat is thought to be closely linked to increased level of fat in the bloodstream, which can lead to common conditions such as high cholesterol, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Sedentary life style causes excess visceral fat, and exercise can reduce it quicker than subcutaneous fat (fat located under skin). br bWhat is resting metabolism? /b br Resting metabolism is the energy to maintain vital functions and it counts 60 to 70% of total energy consumption. Knowing your resting metabolism can help your dietplan. If you can increase daily activity while keeping food intake at resting metabolism level, you can lose weight. br bWhat is skeletal muscle?/b br Skeletal muscle is muscle attached to the bones that is used to move the body. If you do weight loss without exercise, you may lose skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle is important to maintain your resting metabolism as well as your functionality. Monitoring skeletal muscle during weight loss is key to avoid weight rebound in the future. /blockquote br clear="all"

 Wife Likes It January 7, 2009
I am going to keep this short and sweet. This baby replaced our older scale. It has bells and whistles my wife was looking for.
Arrived extremely quickly, easy setup, good device. January 7, 2009
The device arrived packaged well, was easy to setup and use (multiple users share it), and the display is easy to read - even in the early morning. :).
 Omron HBF-500 Body Composition Monitor with Scale January 6, 2009
Works great as a scale. The body fat percentage calculations are a bit suspect as they are +/- 19%, on average, higher than two other sources that closely relate to each other.
Good scale January 2, 2009
I really like this scale. I do not use the body fat functions. I use it for measuring my weight only. It is a nice, light, dependable, electronic scale. The numbers are easy to read without glasses. The only feature I would like to see is a lighted display.
as others have said December 28, 2008

The precision and accuracy of the weight measurement is quite good. This fat % calculation is not accurate, but may be precise. I'd guess if one had a professional assessment of body fat one could track changes with this scale, ignoring the absolute quantity.
