What Does A Dexa Scan Measure?
A DEXA scan provides a detailed breakdown of your body composition, measuring total body fat percentage, visceral fat, lean muscle mass, fat mass, and bone mineral density. It also shows how fat and muscle are distributed across different regions of your body, offering valuable insights to support training, fat loss, and long-term health and longevity.

Why Should You Get a DEXA Scan?
Dr. Peter Attia promotes the use of DEXA scans as a reliable way to assess body composition—specifically lean muscle mass, visceral fat, and bone mineral density—all of which are strong predictors of both longevity and health span. Unlike weight or BMI, DEXA scans provide precise, actionable data that supports smarter training, better nutrition, and long-term health optimisation.
