Episode 118: Best Tools Beyond the Scale to Assess Health Progress

On today's episode of Empowered in Health, we talk more about tools beyond the scale. Things that can help tremendously when it comes to assessing overall progress on our wellness journeys. And resources that can truly EMPOWER us to press forward with knowledge that encourages us from the inside out. So much of the women's health narrative has included the scale and weight loss and the idea of focusing most on less, skinnier, smaller. But when it comes to long-term, longevity health - shifting our mindset is imperative. The truth is, BMI and Weight on the scale give an inaccurate picture of what's really happening on a deeper level inside our bodies. What about water? What about muscle mass vs. fat mass? What about visceral fat and getting a clearer picture around the kind of "shape" our bodies are in metabolically? The best way to get a snapshot into our wellness on a deeper level is through tools like the WH Ratio, InBody Scan, DexaScan, Measurements, Photos and assessing ENERGY. You can dive into more research below... Learn more about WH Ratio Here. Learn more about InBody Here. Learn more about DexaScan Here. In the end - I'm all about EMPOWERED knowledge for women. When it comes to our health, stepping into more specific data for our unique bodies completely changes the game on how we can work towards our health goals. With more information, we can intentionally focus on the habits that will serve us best. From nutrition to supplementation to changing up fitness strategies, protecting rest/sleep and working on stress management - there's so much that goes into how our body feels and functions.
