The TANITA BC-401 is a very compact and precise body analysis scale, ideal for the whole family. It stores data for up to 5 individuals and measures only what is truly relevant for children (ages 5 to 17), namely weight, BMI, and body fat percentage. This way, everyone gets an overview of their own body composition, and all can work together towards their health goals. The BC-401 also measures your metabolic age. This unique measurement function is exclusive to TANITA body analysis scales. It calculates your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) and compares it to the average for your age group. If your metabolic age is lower than your actual age, you are on the right track. If it is higher, there is still more to do! With the MyTANITA app, all measurement results are instantly sent to your smartphone or tablet. The information you gather over time will motivate you to achieve your long-term goals!.
