WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE BUYING A BIA

PREDICTIVE EQUATIONS- THE BIG LIE

In court, inBody was found to be misleading customers with statements that inBody units do not use predictive equations and estimations.


The Big Lie

 inBody argued in court, that there are two parts to a BIA.

MEASUREMENT & ASSESSMENT


The MEASUREMENT, according to inBody's argument, is the part where you stand on the scale and get your weight and impedance values from the test.  The ASSESSMENT, according to inBody is the interpretation of the data.


inBody acknowledged that they  DO USE EQUATIONS AND ESTIMATIONS for the "ASSESSMENT" portion or the interpretation of the data.


The Bottom Line:  No matter what you buy, the data is analyzed using estimates and equations.  There is no way around it.  Data has to be compared to something to provide accurate results.  

  

 Despite losing the lawsuit, inBody continues to mislead unwitting consumers.


ALL BIA UNITS USE PREDICTIVE EQUATIONS AND ESTIMATIONS.   FULL STOP.  

Proprietary Data

All companies have their own proprietary algorithms, data and patents.   


Any salesperson that makes a claim to know information about another company's algorithm (study populations etc..) is not being truthful.  This is proprietary information that would not be disclosed.  Ask your representative how they know this information.


 Inexperienced sales people may claim that a company holds a "patent on the technology" when they the company really only holds a patent on a very small piece of the product, like a thumb placement, for example.


 The US government does not verify the accuracy or quality of the information contained in the patent.  

Market Presence

Companies are clamoring for your attention, spending money on internet placement, social media and fancy marketing materials.  


While fancy marketing is a great place to start, reach out to independent representatives like Spartan Wellness Technology to give you the one on one attention you need to make an educated choice that meets your expectations on quality, data and price.  


A good company will tell you if the products they sell are not right for you.

The Bottom Line

As an independent representative, we have both the clinical data and our own data.  Ask your SWT client success specialist to help educate you so you can make an informed decision.  If you have questions about comparing a unit, or a claim that has been made, reach out to us.  We will assist you with no bias.  We want what's best for you.
