Why Bone Health Matters (and How to Improve It at Any Age)
If you’ve had a DEXA scan with us, you might remember us asking you to guess the weight of your skeleton. We love this question because the answer is almost always surprising—most people are shocked to discover just how little bone mineral content they actually have. It’s a powerful reminder of how precious our bone mass is, and why it’s so important to protect and preserve it as we age.
Unlock Your Potential for Longevity: The Intersection of ALMI, DEXA Scans, and Health
Step into the future of longevity and muscle health with the Appendicular Lean Mass Index (ALMI) and the power of DEXA Scans. The ALMI has emerged as a significant predictor of overall health, with compelling correlations to longevity. The precise assessments of ALMI provided by DEXA scans provide an invaluable tool for progress tracking via AI-generated insights.
InBody Test vs DEXA Scan: Decoding Body Composition Analysis
Two popular tools for charting this inner landscape are InBody and DEXA scans. While both offer valuable insights, they differ in their approach, accuracy, and the level of detail they provide.
The Scale Paradox: Why No Change Could Be Your Biggest Win
Your bathroom scale might not tell the whole story of your fitness progress. While your weight may remain unchanged, your body could be undergoing significant transformations in fat loss, muscle gain, and overall health. Understanding body composition—through tools like DEXA scans—provides a clearer picture of your progress, offering insights that go far beyond the number on the scale.
