Body Composition Instructions:

For your wellness screening results to be as accurate as possible, please note the following recommendations:

• Drink plenty of fluids – preferably water – the day and evening before your screen. Dehydration can unfavorably alter the body composition tests. Caffeine and diet drinks also have a dehydration effect. On the morning of your test, we recommend you drink two glasses of water at least one hour before your screen time.
• Refrain from eating and drinking coffee, tea, alcohol or regular and diet soda for 12 hours before your wellness screening appointment. Drink water only! You may take prescribed medications, use your best judgment.
• Avoid climbing stairs or rushing for 20 minutes prior to your appointment.
