A normal distribution of these compartments in the body is associated with healthy immunity, productivity, physical performance and longevity.

To ensure best results, please observe the following pre-test guidelines:

1. No alcohol consumption within 24 hours prior to taking the test
2. No exercise, caffeine or food within 4 hours prior to taking the test
3. Drink 2-4 glasses of water 2 hours prior to taking the test
4. For the sake of convenience and time, wear socks, anklets or knee-high stockings. Panty hose will have to be removed.

Bioimpedance (BIA) body composition analyzers measure body composition electronically. They do not diagnose disease or recommend treatment regimes. Only a qualified health care professional can make these judgments.

We are strong advocates of the classic patient-physician relationship  especially with respect to prescriptions. Any patient that requires a prescription must have a face to face interaction with their physician. FDA's general position: The FDA, due to the current state of their regulations, has taken the position that virtually all shipments of prescription drugs imported from a Canadian pharmacy by a U.S. consumer will violate the law.   If a woman must take hormone replacement therapy to ease the symptoms of menopause she should take the lowest possible dose for the shortest amount of time.
