Product Review

Weight alone is not a clear indicator of good health because it does not distinguish between pounds that come from body fat and those that come from lean body mass or muscle. Carrying too much fat is a condition called obesity, and puts a person at risk for many serious medical conditions including heart disease, diabetes and even certain forms of cancer. If you're like most people, you're not drinking enough water. If you wait until you feel thirsty, your body is already suffering from the effects of mild dehydration. You continually lose water during the day through sweat, urine and breathing. Having the right amount of water in your body will not only make you feel healthier, but you'll also reduce your risk of developing serious health problems. The Tanita UM-081 is designed for adults and children age 7 and older, and stores data for 2 people. This scale also features a guest mode, allowing you to use the unit without losing information already assigned to the personal keys. Simply supply your gender, age, height, step on the scale, and the UM-081 does the rest. The results are analyzed according to each user's information.
