MyBiodyBalance, the connected remote control made in French Tech

At a time when digital and connected objects are booming, here is a brand that intends to make talk about it ... And it started in January 2015: MyBiodyBalance defended the colors of France and French Tech at CES 2015 in Las Vegas (the international high-tech show). The brand presented its wearable (transportable) innovation to the public: a balance of a new kind that measures in a few seconds fat, muscle, bone mass and hydration rate. A customized assessment that determines our level of form. Essential information to help us rebalance through diet and physical activity.

The MyBiodyBalance innovation was even noticed in Las Vegas by the Minister of Economy in person: Emmanuel Macron , according to François Trabelsi , was one of the co-founders of the brand, stressed the need for the repayment of this device by the Social Security.

MyBiodyBalance, from medical to general public

The health side of MyBiodyBalance is totally assumed by François Trabelsi: "It is a prevention tool initially used by the medical profession. By regularly monitoring its bone and muscle mass, the device prevents certain diseases. MyBiodyBalance is a practical tool for monitoring the health of the elderly or people with more or less serious illnesses such as anemia or Charcot's disease. "

But for several months now, MyBiodyBalance is diversifying and adapting the device to individuals who want to pay attention to their shape and lose a few kilos in an optimal way. Because it is evidently by having all the good data of our body in hand, that one can adapt his diet and thus avoid the recovery of weight too fast. In March 2015, during the commercialization of MyBiodyBalance at Darty, nearly 1500 people took their measurements over 3 days. The brand will soon partner with the mutual Malakoff Médéric and will offer free measurements.

Ten years of testing with nutritionists , dieticians and other healthcare professionals have enabled MyBiodyBalance to harness thousands of data and create an algorithm to define 300 different body profiles . There's bound to be ours!

We tested MyBiodyBalance: it's easy!

- 1st step as for any connected object, download the application ad hoc and enter information about his profile (sex, size, weight, age, etc.). It is the one we use as a dashboard. By sending a request by email to customer service, you can get 2 accounts on the same device. But if you can not follow the evolution of more than 2 people at a time, you can still take the measures of as many "guests" as you want. Obviously, it works on smartphone and tablet (under iOS and Android).

We then take our data by placing the apparatus under the malleolus. A button is pressed and after a few seconds a signal informs us that the measurements have been taken. The only prerequisite is to moisten the ankle and fingers (with a wipe or sopalin soaked in water) for the conductive effect.

- Finally, we synchronize our measurements form : a index of general form ranging from 0 to 10 arises from our fat mass, bone mass, muscle mass and hydration rate.

When should I make MyBiodyBalance?

It is recommended to do your body balance once a day or once a week (according to its objectives, namely weight loss, health follow-up, etc.), in the morning on an empty stomach. The application MyBiodyBalance keeps all our history in memory, so we can follow the evolution of its state of form.

But if MyBiodybalance can be a slimming ally, its goal is not to make us lose weight but to help us better monitor our condition and health. MyBiodyBalance is thought to be a true intelligent connected object of e-health : if our data and measurements detect an anomaly, an email alert is sent to us. The French Tech is that too!

2 flats all the same:

- MyBiodyBalance analyzes for the moment our state of form and our superfluous kilos, but gives no advice neither to lose them nor to transform the form test. It is up to us to manage, autonomously. The brand promises a form and / or diet coaching by 2016 ...

- Its high price: 250 €. At that price, it is better to be sure to use it!
