February 16th, 2010 . by adminSteps to recording a BodyGem RMR Measurement
An RMR measurement should be performed in a quiet environment with the client resting comfortably for 10 to 15 minutes prior to the test.
The minimally accepted protocol for a client to receive an accurate measurement is the following:
• Avoid foods, beverages (except water), and exercise for 4 hours.
• Avoid caffeine for 4 hours.
• Avoid taking nutritional supplements and medications that contain ephedra, MaHuang, pseudoephedrine, or other nutritional stimulants for 4 hours.
• Avoid nicotine for 1 hour.
The BodyGem will beep when the measurement is completed and the RMR will display on the LCD panel.
