Tanita is a pioneer in the development of Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA), an extremely reliable method for body composition analysis. More than a simple weight or body fat % provided by ordinary scales or calipers, Tanita's body composition analyzers provide detailed body composition analysis - weight, impedance, body fat %, body mass index, fat mass, fat-free mas and more, all without the inconvenience of more intrusive traditional measurement methods.

All Tanita monitors have undergone a stringent review by the FDA to ensure that our customers receive the highest quality, and most accurate, products on the market.

The addition of hand grips to their standard platform-based electrode system allows the BC-418 to calculate regional body composition, empowering healthcare professionals to better determine health risk associated with visceral and abdominal fat.

Cleared by the FDA - all Tanita monitors have undergone a stringent review by the FDA to ensure that our customers receive the highest quality, and most accurate, products on the market. Your confidence is our priority. Tanita body fat and body composition scales are FDA cleared, IS YOURS? If not, return it and buy the real thing.
