Why Body Composition Matters
Body Fat
Managing body fat is essential for reducing the risk of:
- Heart disease
- Diabetes
- High blood pressure
- Low physical function and energy Even individuals with “normal” weight can carry unhealthy fat levels
BMI

Body composition testing provides a far clearer picture.
Muscle Mass
Healthy muscle mass supports:

Tracking muscle over time helps prevent decline and supports long‑term health
