Assessment and diagnosis
TANITA MC-780MA-N is a professional body composition analyzer that uses bioimpedance technology for a detailed assessment of the body, beyond the simple measurement of weight.
The analysis provides information on muscle mass, adipose tissue, visceral fat and the level of hydration, contributing to a more complete assessment of body composition and nutritional status.
An important advantage is the segmental analysis, through which muscle mass and adipose tissue are assessed separately at the level of the arms, legs and trunk. In this way, changes in body composition and any imbalances between different regions of the body can be observed more easily.
Maintaining muscle mass and a balanced body composition is important for metabolic health, mobility and the preservation of functional capacity with advancing age.
The TANITA analysis is particularly useful for assessing and monitoring muscle mass and the risk of sarcopenia, as well as for following the evolution of body composition in the context of optimizing nutrition, weight control, physical activity and lifestyle.
Repeated periodically, the assessment makes it possible to follow the real changes in body composition, not only the kilograms on the scale. We can observe whether the change in weight occurs predominantly through the reduction or increase of adipose tissue, whether muscle mass is maintained or developed, and how the body evolves over time.
The assessment is quick, non-invasive and provides relevant information for establishing and monitoring a personalized health and longevity strategy.
