Metabolic Analysis

A Calorimeter is a device that accurately and quickly measures your resting metabolic rate (RMR) and oxygen consumption, or VO2. the machine calculates your metabolism to determine your body’s internal efficiency and helps you understand your caloric needs for effective medical nutritional therapy and weight management. Inadequate nutrition can prevent you from reaching your health goals. In addition to weight management, this test provides the information you need to achieve greater personal control of weight-related conditions.

The REEVUE measures the oxygen that the body consumes. Using this measurement it calculates a patient’s Resting Energy Expenditure (REE), commonly referred to as a Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR). Physicians can screen for abnormally low metabolic rates and pinpoint the precise caloric intake required for weight loss, maintenance, or weight gain. Applications include nutritional assessments required to treat obesity as well as obesity related diseases such as metabolic syndrome, sleep disorders, diabetes, and thyroid disorders. Under strict laboratory protocol, the ReeVue can be used to measure basal metabolic rate (BMR).
