Introducing the InBody720 - BODY COMPOSITION ANALYZER
The human body consists of body water, protein, body fat and minerals. 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 minerals make 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.
