Transparent electrodes on tempered glass oversized platform Beautiful blue backlit LCD display and icons The BF-684W uses Bioelectric Impedance Analysis (BIA), a clinically validated FDA cleared method of determining body fat. BIA sends a low current through the body, it passes freely through the fluids contained in muscle tissue and in blood, but encounters difficulty when passing through fat tissue, which contains little water. By using the impedance reading along with gender, age, height and weight the scale can quickly and reliably calculate body fat and total body water.

Body fat monitoring using the BF-684W is an essential tool for precisely measuring your body's inner health. Maintaining healthy body fat levels has far more value than simply calculating your body mass index (BMI). Proper hydration is essential for life.
