QUESTIONS TO TAKE WITH YOU

Put the visceral fat result in context.

A flag is a reason to discuss the result, not a diagnosis. Take the report to your GP and check the units, reference scale and the rest of your health picture.

At your appointment

  1. What does this scanner’s visceral fat estimate mean?
  2. Does it change anything about my current health assessment?
  3. Would any other assessment be useful before changing my plan?

A sensible next step

Start with your GP. A dietitian can help with a nutrition plan if that is appropriate for you.

These suggestions are general information. Your own practitioner can review the full report and your history.
