Body
Composition Assessment via
BIO-IMPEDANCE ANALYSES
-
How
many calories do you burn each day? (at rest)
-
What
percentage of you is fat?
-
Shoot
for 75% of your physique as LEAN MASS ...as your personal goal!
Allow me
plan a program designed specifically for you!
-
BIA analyses + lifestyle plan
= $100.00 per person
-
Allow a true
medical nutrition therapist to
design your very own
muscle-building, fat-burning, hormone-balancing,
health promoting nutrition
plan.
Key Benefits
- Once you know your BMR or basal metabolic
rate,
you know how much food to eat throughout the day.
- Dieting becomes a thing of the past.
Denying your favorite foods is unnecessary.
Simply develop the habit of
eating healthfully 70-80% of the time.
- Bio-impedance provides a baseline to
measure progress over time.
What is bio-impedance?
Bio-impedance technology measures
the speed at which a weak electrical signal travels from point A to
B
[one end of the body to the other]
Bio-impedance provides a
baseline
to measure progress over time.
-
To get accurate results, you follow specific
procedures before taking the test.
-
We place two electrodes on your wrist and
two on your ankle. We measure the speed at which a low
frequency signal travels from point A [hands] to B [lower extremities].
-
A scientific equation
is used to estimate your basal metabolic rate, percentage of body fat, lean
body mass and level of hydration.
-
Next, you get a
recommended course of action designed specifically for your lifestyle.
BIO-IMPEDANCE
FEES:
Groups: $50.00
per person -- just for the test. No individualized interpretation. Only
group interpretation of results --The actual test takes less than 5 minutes.
Explain results to the group as a whole. Design lifestyle goals with the group.
Individuals: $100.00
includes
a personalized
plan ~ 30 minute session
Bio-impedance
Analyses [BIA] can be implemented in a variety of
settings:
Corporate Settings
Examples:
Sherwin Williams requested that employees receive body fat testing after
hearing my nutrition seminar.
Figgie International set up a special workshop
for employees with high risk health histories [diabetes, hypertension, heart
disease, etc.], and included bio-impedance testing as a part of the
experience.
Medical Settings
Examples: Mount Sinai Hospital, Pain Management
Clinic included bio-impedance testing as component of patient care. Small
group lectures preceded body composition testing. The Jewish Community
Center has a special section for patients recovering from heart disease.
I provided nutrition counseling and bio-impedance testing for patients
referred to this Step-3 and Step-4 Cardiac Outpatient Patient program.
Organize your own group of ten...or more!
