An electronic scale is a must at home now. People use it at home to control their weight reasonably and shape a healthy body, and it occupies a very important position. Beauty-loving women use scales almost every day. Those who are attentive have noticed that they seem to weigh less in the morning than in the evening. Well, do you know why?

Understanding Body Fat Weight Scales

Body fat weight scales, like the Transtek GBF-2008-B, use bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to measure body composition. BIA works by sending a small, harmless electrical current through the body. The scale then measures the resistance to this current, which varies between different types of tissues (fat, muscle, water, etc.). The data is used to estimate body fat percentage, muscle mass, and other metrics.


Transtek GBF-2008-B: A Brief Introduction


The Transtek GBF-2008-B is a state-of-the-art body fat weight scale that offers a range of features:


High Precision Sensors: For accurate weight and body composition measurements.


Multi-User Capability: Allows multiple profiles, making it suitable for family use.


Smart Connectivity: Syncs with mobile apps for easy tracking and analysis.


Comprehensive Metrics: Measures weight, body fat percentage, muscle mass, bone density, and more.


Does the body fat weight scale have radiation to pregnant women?

Women are very concerned about the changes in their bodies when they are pregnant. Because pregnant women need to ensure the nutrition of the fetus, they usually eat more food, which will make the weight gain quickly. In fact, pregnant women should increase their weight scientifically, otherwise they are prone to gestational diabetes and high blood pressure. When pregnant women monitor their weight, they must use body weight scales. So, does the fat weight scale have radiation to pregnant women?


The body fat weight scale has no radiation to pregnant women, but pregnant women cannot use the body fat weight scale. Although the body fat weight scale does not radiate to pregnant women, it does generate electricity. The body fat weight scales that everyone uses now are all measured by passing electricity through people's bodies.


Safety Concerns During Pregnancy

Electrical Current and Fetal Safety

One of the primary concerns about using body fat weight scales during pregnancy is the electrical current used in BIA. Although the current is very low and generally considered safe for most people, there is limited research on its effects on pregnant women and their developing fetuses. The concern is that even a small electrical current could potentially interfere with fetal development.


Manufacturer Guidelines

Most manufacturers, including Transtek, advise against using BIA scales during pregnancy. This caution is primarily due to the lack of conclusive research proving their safety. Pregnant women are often advised to consult their healthcare provider before using such devices.


Accuracy of Measurements During Pregnancy

Changes in Body Composition

Pregnancy brings about significant changes in a woman's body composition. Increased blood volume, amniotic fluid, and the growing fetus all contribute to weight gain and changes in body fat distribution. These changes can affect the accuracy of BIA measurements, leading to potentially misleading results.


Fluid Retention

Pregnant women often experience fluid retention, which can further skew BIA measurements. The increased water content in the body can lead to inaccurate readings of body fat percentage and muscle mass. Therefore, even if the scale is safe to use, the data it provides may not be reliable during pregnancy.


Alternative Methods for Monitoring Health

Instead of using body fat weight scales, pregnant women can opt for traditional weight scales to monitor their weight gain. Regular weight checks can help ensure that weight gain is within the recommended range for a healthy pregnancy. Healthcare providers can offer guidance on appropriate weight gain based on individual health and pregnancy progress.
