These days bathroom scales are diagnostic – not only telling your weight, but your body fat, muscle content, water content, bone mass and even your recommended daily calorie consumption.
With Beurer’s Diagnostic Scale range, the detailed body analysis is carried out by electrodes, which are integrated into the standing surface of the scale. The respective resistance (biometric impedance) in the body is calculated through a small, gentle and undetectable current and expressed in percentage values or kg. Users enter their age, height, gender and how active they are. It can also calculate your BMI (Body-Mass-Index).
Less mirror-mirror on the wall, more tell-tale scales on the floor, but these can help you keep an eye on your overall health as well as your weight.
The Beurer range of diagnostic scales is available from John Lewis from £29.99 to £169.99.
