INTRODUCING InBody720
THE BODY COMPOSITION ANALYZER.
Human body consists of body water, protein, body fat and mineral. The four
elements are the fundamental ingredients constituting the body and the balance
between them is essential to our health. Body composition analysis is to quantify
and measure these ingredients.
In the past, diagnosing obesity was focused on how we looked outside, without
considering the balance among body water, protein, body fat and minerals. From
the health point of view, body composition analysis that takes into account the
balance between body water, protein, body fat and mineral makes more sense
than diagnosing obesity based on how we look. In addition, this is where the
body composition analyzer with high precision comes in.
Biospace earned recognition in the international market for technical expertise
demonstrated through InBody 2.0 and 3.0. Based on the experience and
technicality accumulated over the last 10 years, Biospace released the
InBody720, taking the body composition analysis to a new height. The body
composition analyzer InBody720 is accurate for all body types and for any
possible distribution of body water, measuring the progress of clinical treatment,
weight loss program or exercise therapies reliably.
Using a diverse range of frequency from 1kHz to 1MHz, the InBody720
measures the amount of body water accurately. Particularly, the InBody720 is
the first version to use the reactance analysis method, which is the more
advanced technology for the body composition analysis than those used in
previous versions. Professional-looking exterior, high-definition monitor and new
level of expandability of the InBody720 that were not found in the previous body
composition analyzers will usher you into a new chapter of body composition.
Biospace strives to be your partner for health. We are committed to developing
high-quality products through transparent management and continuous research
and development.
