Vitality and Longevity Analysis

This is a test using BioImpedence Analysis technique to measure the Biological Age, overall health, hydration, toxicity, fat mass, lean body mass, hormonal problems, metabolic rate and the capacity of the body to regenerate.

This health check is a 2-minute test that gives a snapshot of the patient's health simply and quickly. This non-invasive method involves attaching electronic pads to one hand and one foot. It is a cost effective way of obtaining a large amount of information useful for diagnosis and treatment. The parameters covered by this test include:

   Biological age

   Early detection and characterisation of nutritional imbalances

   Early detection and characterisation of fluid imbalances

   Assessment of toxicity levels

   Accurate measurement of the Basal Metabolic Rate - shows exactly how many calories are needed per day for stable weight

   Accurate measurement of body fat mass – picks up thyroid and insulin resistance problems

   Assessment of hydration / dehydration status

   Measurement of Body Mass Index

   Assessment of cell regeneration capacity - recovery from any chronic health problem requires cell regeneration to be occur faster than cell degeneration e.g. wound healing and osteoporosis.

   Measurement of cellular vitality – a snapshot of overall health
