What is Bioimpedance?
At Zephyr Health, we use bioimpedance technology to go beyond the number on the scale and provide real insight into your body composition.
Bioimpedance analysis uses a safe, painless, low-voltage electrical current that travels from your toes to your head. Because muscle and fat conduct electricity differently, this allows the scale to estimate the distribution of body tissues — giving us a clearer picture of your internal health.
What the Scale Measures
Your results include a detailed breakdown of your body composition:
- Lean Muscle Mass – Total muscle in your body.
- Fat Mass – Overall fat content
- Visceral Fat – Fat surrounding your organs, which is associated with increased risk for conditions like diabetes and heart disease
Why Body Composition Matters
Traditional scales don’t tell the full story. As you work toward better health, fat loss and muscle gain can cancel each other out on the scale, making it hard to see progress. Bioimpedance helps you:
- See changes in muscle and fat even when your weight stays the same
- Track reductions in visceral fat, a key marker of metabolic health
- Personalize your care plan for more effective results
This deeper understanding allows us to tailor recommendations for nutrition, movement, and hormone balance — and track what’s really working for you.
Understanding the Limitations
Like any tool, bioimpedance analysis has its limitations, and interpreting the results requires context:
Machine Accuracy
- Not all machines are created equal. We use a high-quality, calibrated scale and recommend using the same machine over time to reduce variability.
Hydration Matters
- Dehydration can increase electrical resistance, falsely elevating body fat percentage. Staying well-hydrated is essential for accuracy.
Glycogen & Training
- Low-carb diets or intense exercise can deplete glycogen (and its stored water), which may affect the readings.
Estimations, Not Absolutes
- The scale uses equations based on population averages. Individual differences (age, ethnicity, athleticism) can influence accuracy. That’s why we use bioimpedance as one piece of your overall health picture — not the whole story.
