Bod Pod

The numbers on your scale might look good to you, but that doesn't necessarily mean your body is lean. Up until now, figuring out your body's accurate fat composition was not easy but now, a new device is changing that.

We climb on scales, pinch our bulges and submerge ourselves in water, all
in an effort to find out how much fat we have on our bodies. But that is about
to change.

You're about to enter a new dimension, where scales and pounds have no
meaning, this is a Bod Pod. It measure your body fat composition and can tell
you whether diet and exercise is making a difference. A scale may lie but in
the Bod Pod, there is only truth.

Janie Hussey - "I've gone to weight watchers, I've had doctors give me programs to lose weight I haven't lost anything."

Janie Hussey is one of about 50 participants in a study out of Wayne State
University examining the relationship between inner-city people and lack of
physical activity.

Dr. Weimo Zhu/Wayne State Univ. - "All the literature shows that inner city people especially African American women are at a very high risk, in terms of suffering, disease and stroke."

Dr. Weimo Zhu uses the new Bod Pod for his study. Participants simply climb inside and in less than 3 minutes, computerized pressure sensors determine the amount of air-space your body takes up the program factors in your weight and then figures out how much of you is fat.

Experts say the margin of error is only 3 percent, compared to nearly 15
percent for the Calper method. The information can help participants like Janie start a plan to lead a healthier lifestyle.

Janie - "I hope to find out if I'm a candidate for heart problems. I hope not and
losing weight get down to reasonable size."
