Smart scales
aren’t enough

What if your true body fat is 20% lower than your smart scales suggest? Would it change how you train or eat? For many of our clients, it does — they adjust their strategy after their first scan

Dr. Andy Galpin

'I have personally put people through hundreds of DEXA scans. A lot of the time, we see people come back who are generally healthy, lean, active, young – and they still have really low or poor bone quality.'

Bryan Johnson

‘Today, I'm doing a DEXA scan. I've made a bunch of changes in my life, and we're now going to see all the data points that are relevant’

Dan Go

“With a DEXA scan, we’re looking at three things: your body fat, your lean mass, and your visceral fat — the kind that wraps around your organs.”

Ali Abdaal

“Every single person I’ve recommended a DEXA scan to – once they’ve done it – has said, ‘Oh my god, this is the best money I’ve ever spent on my health.'

Dr. Peter Attia

“I think everybody should have a DEXA scan, You just have to know this data. You have to know your bone mineral density, how much visceral fat you have, and how much muscle mass you have”
