What makes the Body Comp stand out is it can assess the health of your arteries and nerves in addition to \u201cnormal\u201d body composition. Withings is also introducing a new Health Plus coaching service alongside the scale to help users meet their goals. <\/p>\n Smart scales like the Body Comp all use BIA to send a weak current through your body to determine how much muscle, water, bone, and fat you have. (Though, you should always take these scales\u2019 accuracy and health claims with a grain of salt<\/a>.) What\u2019s novel here is users can assess their vascular age, visceral fat, and nerve health from a single device. Visceral fat refers to the fat that cushions your organs. It influences the hormones in your body, and too much can mess with your metabolism and heart health. The vascular age metric is based on pulse wave velocity<\/a>, or how quickly pressure waves move through a blood vessel. It indicates how stiff a person\u2019s arteries are and whether that\u2019s appropriate for their age. People whose vascular age is older than their actual chronological age may have a higher risk of developing cardiovascular issues down the road.<\/p>\n
