What is Body Composition?
Body composition is a method of breaking down the body into its core components: fat, protein, minerals, and body water. It describes your weight more accurately and provides a better glimpse into your overall health than traditional methods.
Body composition analysis can accurately show changes in fat mass, muscle mass, and body fat percentage.
Why is Body Composition Important for Weight Loss?
Most diet and fitness goals focus on weight loss or gain, overlooking that two people of the same sex and body weight may look completely different from each other because they have a different body composition. Body composition describes the amount of fat, bone, water, and muscle in the body. Measuring your body composition will tell you your own body’s unique makeup and help you identify areas to work on to improve your overall health and wellness.
Body composition analysis is a method of describing what the body is made of, differentiating between fat, protein, minerals, and body water to give you a snapshot of your health. InBody is in the business of body composition analysis, and we’re here to help you reach your health goals from the inside out.
Weight Loss Injections
We offer two options for weight loss injections: Semaglutide and Tirzepatide. Semaglutide mimics the hormone glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) that causes insulin secretion and slows down how quickly your stomach empties food and increases the feeling of fullness so you eat less and lose weight. Tirzepatide is considered stronger than Semaglutide because it affects two receptors: GLP-1 and glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). In combination with a healthy diet and exercise, both are effective for long term weight loss.

IV Nutrient Therapies
IV vitamin therapy delivers nutrients directly to the bloodstream and makes them instantly accessible by the body for use.
Intravenous therapy, or IV therapy, bypasses the digestive tract and transports hydration and nutrients directly to your bloodstream. A nutrients IV is a specific type of IV therapy that efficiently administers vitamins, minerals, hydration, and medications to the body through an IV drip.

Food Inflammatory Testing (FIT)
What does this test for?
This test tests your blood for “long term” antibodies to 176 different foods. It also tests for something called Zonulin, which can indicate leaky gut.
When small particles of food are able to cross into your intestinal membrane, these small particles sometimes cause the intestines to respond with inflammation within the GI tract, which can cause troublesome symptoms, such as bloating, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, acid reflux, and/or excess flatulence.
What is the difference between a food sensitivity and food allergy?
The difference between a food allergy and sensitivity is the body’s response. When you have a food allergy, your immune system causes the reaction. If you have a food sensitivity or intolerance, the reaction is triggered by the digestive system.
- Symptoms of food intolerance include gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, cramping, and nausea.
- Symptoms of food allergy include hives, swelling, itching, anaphylaxis, and dizziness.
How is testing done and what does this test for?
This test is completed with a quick blood sample. The blood is tested for IgG and immune complexes to 176 different foods.
