Comparison

InBody 380 vs Nutriguard-MS

InBody 380 and Nutriguard-MS: compare documented specifications, features and limitations. Check the reports and explanation offered by the provider. More features alone do not establish better accuracy.

InBody 380: when to consider it

For following fat and muscle changes at a gym, nutrition practice or mobile testing event. Adds a body-water ratio and whole-body phase angle to the usual overview for discussion during a consultation.

Nutriguard-MS: when to consider it

Nutriguard-MS measures bioelectrical impedance at 5, 50 and 100 kHz. Standard testing uses four adhesive electrodes on the hand and foot of one side. Body-composition and water estimates are evaluated from resistance and reactance using the relevant software; regional mode requires the appropriate procedure.

Fat-free mass is not pure muscle mass. A single result is not a diagnosis. Different devices and similarly named metrics may use definitions that are not interchangeable.
