Product Review of Escali Bfbw200 – a Body Fat Scale That Really Works
An essential part of anyone’s diet is the knowledge of a starting place and a way to gauge your progress. Many people use a traditional weight scale in order to determine if they are adequately meeting their goals. Others use the more time honored method of looking at yourself in the mirror; if you see what you like, then you are doing just fine. For those of us that need a more ‘measured’ or logical approach, technology has joined with appliance companies to give us the body fat scale. A typical scale tells us how much we weigh, either in pounds or kilograms. A body fat scale is a modified, or enhanced, digital scale that not only tells us how much we weigh, but how much of our weight is fat. Honestly, this is the true determining factor in weight loss. Are we losing fat? Or are we just losing whatever weight we can get rid of? Now, it is great to lose weight, period. But it is even better to lose the right kind of weight. Therefore, it is important that we have the tools necessary to make our diet not only effective, but the best diet for us. There are many different body fat scales out on the market today. One of my favorite scales is the Escali BFBW200. I actually bought this scale and have tested it out for you.
There are several things that are very important in a body fat scale. First off, it must be accurate. Any kind of scale that is not accurate is not going to be of any importance to us. We need accuracy. Second, it must be consistent. Along with accuracy, we want our results to be consistent throughout its use. We don’t want it to be accurate some of the time, and then start telling us the wrong data, or only tell us the right weight 1 out of every 3 times. Third, we need a scale that gives us a few options: weight, body fat percentage, and body water percentage are some of the most important. Fourth, we need a scale that we are not going to want to hide underneath the toilet. We want something that will look good and that we will not be afraid of showing off. The Escali BFBW200 has several of these features and was adequate enough that I would recommend it. First off, it is fairly accurate when compared to other scales and also is fairly consistent. I was impressed that it not only offered fat percentage readings, but also body water composition.
I thought this was important because we can also lose a lot of water weight (which is not really going to help us in our quest for overall health benefits). So, this scale tells us what we need to know in a very easy and understandable way. It is not confusing nor does it offer too many options that we are not going to end up using. Finally, this scale looks good. There is no going around it. It does not detract from a beautifully decorated bathroom, it only enhances it. It is designed in such a way as to compliment a modern-looking style. It might not be the best for a bathroom with a ‘farm theme.’ But it certainly does well in most other settings.

How many rads can a modern day warhead deliver?
Im just curious if ANYTHING could withstand a nuclear war...
I know Deinococcus Radiodurans Bacteria is capable of withstanding around 1,500,000 rads... and this is the most radioactive-proof living organism known to man, but what kind of scale does a modern day nuclear weapon, from say America or the UK create.
Enough to kill off all life? Or would this bacteria survive?
Edit:
Obviously anything in the blast radius would die... i know this... what i mean is the aftermath, the radiation...
it is a myth that cockroaches would survive, they die when blasted with between 6000 and 9000 rads, the bacteria withstood 1,500,000 rads...
Assuming downwinds about 2000 rads at full exposure within 5km
with a US standard sized nuclear warhead at full yield. That would
be about 500kt. But most missile based nukes are smaller or are
set at a lower yield. You don't need this kind of firepower for the
vast majority of targets.
