Measuring body composition

Body analysis of Angbin Teb

Composition levels of body analysis

1- Atomic level

  Various constituents such as oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen and calcium

2- Molecular level

Major molecular compounds including water, protein, glycogen, minerals and fats

3- Cell level

Cell and extracellular fluid and solids important in nutritional assessments

4- Tissue level

Main tissues and organs

5- The level of the whole body

Main anthropometric indicators such as height, circumference, width, thickness of skin fold and other criteria of body weight, density and volume.

What is the purpose of body analysis?

 

In Angbin Teb, the exact amount of water inside and outside the cell, body fat and muscle can be detected separately in the upper body, lower body, right and left of the body with an analysis device, and finally a more accurate nutrition and exercise program can be set for the person.

It can also be used to pay more attention to body weight changes and create a goal and motivation in the person. Although a nutritional status can be estimated by determining body size and composition, nutritional deficiencies will not be identified, so other assessment methods (biochemical blood and urine parameters) should be used.

What does the analyzer device show us?

• Body water volume

• Protein in the body

•    Vitamins

• Kg of fat

• Kg of skeletal muscle

• BMI

• Percentage of fat to muscle

• Score the whole body relative to the ideal position

• Ratio to waist to hip ratio

• Visceral fat score

• Metabolism number

Most importantly, how muscle and fat are distributed in the left arm, right arm, left leg, right leg, and abdomen.

Why should we be aware of our body composition?

Helps maintain good health, beauty and fitness, better performance in athletes and optimal weight determination, especially in weight-related sports.

Also, by knowing the amount of body fat and comparing it with world standards, people can be divided into four groups based on gender and age: lean, healthy, overweight and obese.

Awareness of body composition helps maintain health, beauty and fitness, better performance in athletes and determining the optimal weight, especially in weight-dependent sports.

Why is body composition analysis superior to BMI?

Body mass index (BMI) is the ratio of weight in kilograms to height squared in meters. This method is common due to its ease, but in this method, the amount of fat and details are not examined, and it is important to know this amount in athletes, pregnant women and other high-risk groups.

Laboratory methods for measuring body composition and analyzing it

• Measuring the total amount of body water

• Underwater weighting (hydrostatic)

• Air displacement volumetric

Photon Absorption Assessment (DEXA: Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry)

Bioelectrical impedance resistance (BIA)

• Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

• Whole body protein

• Measurement of total body potassium

• Computer or CT scan

    Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging

What parameters are analyzed by this device?

Analyze body to understand the shape of it

  Adults

• Weight

• Fat mass volume

• Muscle mass volume

• Total body water

• Body Mass Index (BMI)

• Percentage of fat of body

Waist to hip ratio (WHR)

Basic metabolic rate (BMR)

• The amount of compounds in different parts of the body separately

Children

• Growth curve (height, weight)

• Growth score

• Fitness table

• Total body water

• The amount of protein and minerals

• Fat mass of Body

• Body Mass Index (BMI)

• Determining the degree of obesity

•                Basal metabolic rate

 

Tips before doing body composition analysis:

• Do not consume alcohol and caffeine in the day before the measurement

Do not exercise 4 to 6 hours before the measurement

• Consume 2 to 4 glasses of water 2 hours before the measurement

Empty the bladder immediately before the measurement

• Normal air temperature

• The person needs natural hydration at the time of measurement

• Do not have jewelry and mobile phones with you when performing body analysis

Terms of analysis:

Do not eat or be fast for at least 2 hours before a meal test.

• Do not drink too much water at least 2 hours before the test.

• Do not bathe or go to the pool for at least 2 hours before the test.

• Do not consume caffeine for at least 2 hours before the test.

Avoid strenuous exercise for at least 2 hours before the test.

• Be sure to remove all metal jewelry.

• Do not place the mobile phone near the analyzer.

• Do not wear heavy or thick clothing.

 Which circumstances can not the body composition analysis be performed?

• Pregnancy

• Menstruation

• Presence of prosthesis or platinum in the body

Relationship between body analyzer and health of organs

• Digestive problems

• The degree of joint and bone health

Insulin resistance

• Cardiovascular health status

• Genital health

• Liver dysfunction

• Respiratory and pulmonary problems

• Determine brain health

• Stiffness of the vessel wall

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

MRI is a safe and secure X-ray technique in which magnetic fibers stimulate the body's water and cells and producing measurable signals to detect body fat and lean tissue. In this method, a person lies inside a magnetic chamber while the computer scans his body. This process takes about 30 minutes.

Whole protein of body

Protein in the body can be estimated from the total amount of nitrogen in the body, because 16% of protein is nitrogen.

Measurement of total potassium in body

By measuring the amount of potassium, you can calculate the amount of free-fat mass (FFM), which contains more than 90% of the body's potassium.

Field methods of body analysis

• Determining the thickness of the skin layer

• Anthropometric

Determining the thickness of the skin layer

This method is an indirect method in which the thickness of subcutaneous adipose tissue is measured with a device called a caliper based on the density or percentage of body fat, with sufficient accuracy. This method, which can be applied in different locations, requires high accuracy and skill of the tester. Measurement of skin fold thickness is based on two hypotheses:

1- The thickness of adipose tissue in the measurement area represents the total reserves of the body

2- The measuring point indicates the middle of the thickness of the total subcutaneous reserves.

Measurements are usually made in the areas of the triceps, biceps, above the pelvic floor, and below the shoulder.

Three special positions for men are: thighs, chest and abdomen.

The three special positions of women are: thigh, three soldiers and super special.

Anthropometry

Anthropometry is another field method of analyzing body composition. In this method, it examines the dimensions, shape, composition, effects of maturity and function of the human body for use, comparison and anthropological classification, which includes body measurements (height, weight, length, width, circumference, body fat percentage and body type).

 

 

What are the usage of anthropometric body analysis?

• Ergonomics

• Review and monitor growth patterns

• Check for changes with practice

• Somatotype determination (morphology)

• Identify talents for different sports

• Determining maturity characteristics and accurate estimation of final height according to a person's bone age

• Estimation of cardiovascular and respiratory endurance

Determining the exact percentage of body fat

• Determining the coefficient of metabolic diseases

• Body analysis

Body composition is affected by factors that humans are unable to control. These factors include:

Age: For example, muscle mass declines with age

Gender: Women have more body fat than men

Genetics: Genes play an important role in the normal low percentage of fat or the body's ability to store fat in certain places.

Hormones: Hormones affect water retention and body composition.

How the device works:

The operation of this device is through electrical impulses and resistance to electric current in body tissues, which according to this resistance, the ratio of body tissues is determined and compares it with the standard values that ​​defined for the device. In this way, the nutritionist can get a complete picture of the condition of the body composition and the details that need attention. The device can also store people's information and compare changes by plotting them.

Also, athletes and people who are losing or gaining weight can draw a suitable plan for continuing their training by comparing the ratio of their tissues with the desired values ​​for that sport, or they can check the progress and achievement of goals in different stages of training. Also, make sure that your diet and exercises to lose or gain weight and muscles are correct.

Using the results of the analysis of this device, the nutritionist and the referring people will gain knowledge on the basis of which they can design a logical program and an accurate vision.
