Air-displacement plethysmography is the newest technology for accurately measuring body composition. The BodPod provides a quick and convenient method for determining how much fat and muscle a person's body is composed of. Working with Dr. Bill Proulx students are using the BodPod to look at the body composition of college wrestlers and swimmers. They also will be investigating body composition changes in college students. Dr. Jennifer Bueche and Dr. Kirsten Hilpert are using the BodPod along with Bioelectrical Impedance equipment (image below) in their Medical Nutrition Therapy courses to teach dietetic students various nutrition assessment and counseling techniques.
