DEXA SCAN FOR BODY FAT

Lower Body Fat Reduces Metabolic & Cardiovascular Disease Risks

Looking skinny does not automatically mean you are healthy.

Visceral fat can hide under our abdominal muscles and is a strong predictor of potential future metabolic and cardiovascular diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and corona artery disease. Continuously elevated visceral fat can lead to an increased mortality risk from these diseases of up to 200%.

These diseases are 2 of the leading causes of death of modern society. Monitoring and managing visceral fat significantly reduces the risk of developing any of them later in life.
