Metabolic age can be measured by Tanita's BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis) technology

Tanita's robust line of best-selling consumer scales and body composition monitors meet the highest health standards, and are FDA approved (US Food & Drug Administration). While competitors bypass this stringent process, all Tanita scales and monitors undergo the quality tests and measures required by the FDA to ensure health care professionals and consumers get the highest quality products on the market.

By using Tanita's BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis) technology, our (Tanita's) body composition monitors can measure:

weight,

body fat percentage,

body water percentage,

muscle mass, physique rating,

basal metabolic rate (BMR),

daily caloric intake (DCI),

metabolic age,

bone mass,

and visceral fat.


These clinically-researched scales / analyzers serve a wide range of health-conscious consumers (from beginner to advanced), by offering: standard digital weight-only scales, dial and analog scales, solar-powered scales, high-capacity scales with large platforms, body fat scales, body water scales, Ironman, Iron Girl, and InnerScan branded lines, as well as, software and scales with outputs…and even the first wireless Bluetooth scales!


With current advances in technology, Tanita's newest products provide segmental body composition readings to aid in injury rehabilitation for competitive athletes that participate in such sports as such as triathlons, marathons, boxing, gymnastics, swimming, Ultimate Fighting, and Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). In addition, Tanita offers the highest level of precision available to consumers with 0.1 lb (50 grams) accuracy, providing consumers the power to see even the slightest change in their bodies. Rounding out the Tanita consumer line is a collection of accurate kitchen scales to control food portion size, pedometers, heart rate monitors, and electronic jump ropes.

As the world-leader in providing accuracy and reliability for consumers, Tanita scales are more affordable for consumers than DEXA (dual energy X-ray absorptiometry) or hydrostatic weighting, and more convenient and private than skin fold (calipers) tests. Our consumer scales allow for personal, in-home monitoring, detailed analysis of diet, and exercise and weight loss progress, while also offering modern design. Tanita scales feature multiple person memory with recall, sleek glass platforms with transparent electrodes, and a low profile. They are ISO 9001 certified and measure in both pounds and kilograms.
