The Vitalio BF101
Body Fat Analyzer
Code 310 - Vitalio Body Fat Analyzer -
$18.95
ody fat analysis
by means of testing the body's current impedience is a well-established
science. There are
hoards of
products now that make use of this simple technology -- most of them
$60 and up,
but many ranging
in the hundreds.
 In preparation for the introduction of our
own weight-loss system, we felt we would make available a simple handheld unit
that does the very same thing for well under $20 USD...
 It can reasonably be argued that
obesity is the health care crisis in the West.
More than
half of all Americans, for example, are obese (55%, versus 43% in 1960 --
according
to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) in the U.S. --
with 22.5% "clinically obese," versus 13% in 1960). The long term
prognosis for not promising, either, with one University of Colorado research
indicating that
nearly
all Americans will one day be overweight given current trends. Since
obesity causes or aggravates diabetes, heart disease, certain cancer types, and
other chronic diseases (a risk increase of up to 60%), this trend is a
disturbing one.
 Although using gross body weight
(relative to other parameters, such as gender and age) was a standard practice
for years, body fat is now a preferred measure of determining healthy
body weight. The table below reflects current benchmarks:
|
Gender/Age |
Slim |
Normal |
Slightly Fat |
Obese |
Male 30 Yrs or Younger |
< 14% |
14 – 20% |
20 – 30% |
More than 30% |
Male Older than 30 Yrs |
< 17% |
17 – 23% |
23 – 30% |
More than 35% |
Female 30 Yrs or Younger |
< 17% |
17 – 24% |
24 – 35% |
More than 35% |
Female Older than 30 Yrs |
< 20% |
20 – 27% |
27 – 35% |
More than 35% |
 Body fat is not the only measure
of determining the degree of obesity, of course -- but it is the most accurate
one. For a quick assessment of your own body weight status, other standards
include BMI (body mass index), where you divide your body weight in kilograms
(in U.S.: divide weight in pounds by 2.2046) by your height in meters squared
(in U.S.: take height in inches and divide by 39.37 - then multiple the result
by itself). If your BMI is 25 or higher, you're overweight; 30 or above, obese.
 Another quick measure that will
indicate if you are at risk of high blood pressure, diabetes, and some cancers,
is waist circumference. For men, the threshold is 40 inches; for women, 35.
 Such measures are not a
replacement for body fat analysis -- but they put you in the ballpark.

Accurate & Incredibly
Easy to Use
 he Vitalio Body Fat Analyzer accurately gives you your
body fat with one-tenth of a percent -- within seconds. And it is so easy to
use: there are just five buttons: (1) Power, (2) Up Arrow (  ),
(3) Down Arrow (  ),
(4) Set, and
(5) Go.
Step 1: Push the Power button to activate. Then use the up and down
arrows to pick which "personal data" number you wish to use. The
Vitalio stores up to 8 different sets of data, so if several people are using it
and regularly monitoring their body fat, they don't have to enter their personal
information in every time they use the device. They just pick the number that
belongs to them, and hit "Set" until they get to Stage 5 (see below).
If you are using the Vitalio for the first time, you will probably just hit
"Set" and move on -- choosing to use "1" as the default. The
"237" you see above is the weight from a previous user. Ignore the
stated weight when you begin from Step 1 --- you will, after all, be entering in
your own weight, or just sticking with a previously entered default weight that
has been for that personality.
Step 2: Use the up and down arrows to enter your current body weight.
If you hold DOWN on these arrows, they will be into fast-forward (or
fast-reverse, if hitting "down arrow"). Hit "Set."
Step 3: Use the arrows, up or down, to enter your height in feet. Hit
"Set." Then inches. Hit "Set" again.
Step 4: Use the arrows, up or down, to enter in your age (in years). Hit
"Set." Use the arrows to pick the male OR the female icon, thus
entering your gender. Hit "Set."
Step 5: Now you are ready to measure your "percent body fat."
Hit "GO," put both thumbs firmly and flat over the two round, metal
probes. Keep them there while Vitalio uses electrical methods to calculate your
body fat as a percentage of your total body weight. On the display above, you
see three areas: (1) Your Personality Identifying Number (an integer, 1 through
8); (2) Your Body Fat, as a percentage of your total weight, taken out to two
decimal places, and; (3) A graphic "body type" representation, using
one of five figures - from underweight to clinically obese. That's it! When
you're finished viewing the results, hit "Power" again to turn your
Vitalio off.
