Real data on your body — the whole picture, not one number.

For anyone troubleshooting a stubborn health issue, tracking progress, or just curious what their metabolism is actually doing.

Most ways to measure your body give you a single piece. A scale gives you weight. A body fat caliper gives you a guess. A DEXA gives you body composition — once. None of those, individually, give you the picture you need to actually move your metabolism.

The full picture comes from two instruments: the InBody 580 — body composition, cellular health (phase angle), hydration and segmental muscle, plus grip strength, blood pressure and height/BMI in one 10-minute visit — and the Breezing Med RMR, an FDA-cleared breath test that measures your resting metabolism directly, not from a formula — something almost no clinic actually does. No radiation. It’s all in a private clinic room on medical-grade equipment, not a gym scale, and every visit fits inside about ten minutes.

If it’s worth measuring, it’s worth measuring repeatedly, accurately, and together. 1Bodycompositionmuscle / fat / segmental 2Grip strengththe longevity signal 3Blood pressurethe cardiovascular signal 4Phase anglethe cellular signal 5RMRthe metabolic signal one 15–30 minute picture

Two instruments. Here’s what each measures.

Each test is its own complete product. Together, they’re the foundation of every program we run.


The InBody 580 body composition analyzer at Twin Cities Metabolism
FIVE BODY REGIONS · ONE 30-SECOND SCAN

Service 1 of 2

The InBody Scan

Captures body composition (muscle, fat, water, segmental analysis), cellular health (Segmental Phase Angle), hydration, grip strength, blood pressure, and height/BMI — all in one 10-minute visit. Self-service review on the InBody Touch screen, with all data syncing to the InBody app on your phone.

InBody’s multi-frequency BIA correlated with DEXA at ~98% in published InBody validation studies. No radiation. Open to the public — no referral needed. $45 first scan.

The Breezing Med indirect calorimeter used at Twin Cities Metabolism
ONE 10-MINUTE BREATH TEST · TWO NUMBERS

Service 2 of 2

Resting Metabolic Rate

Most clinics estimate your metabolism from a formula. We measure it. The Breezing Med is an FDA-cleared portable indirect calorimeter that reads your actual resting metabolic rate (REE) and whether you’re preferentially burning fat or carbs at rest (RQ) over a 10-minute breath sample.

Think of a hybrid car: electric is fat — the efficient fuel you should idle on — and gas is carbs, for real demands. RQ at rest shows which fuel you idle on: a flexible metabolism sits quietly on the battery; a stuck one revs the gas just to sit still.

Validated against research-grade metabolic carts. Includes a brief walkthrough with Dr Jared. $165.

Inside the InBody room

What else gets measured at every InBody scan.

Beyond the InBody 580 itself, three companion devices run as part of every InBody Scan visit. None are upsells — they’re what makes a scan a clinically complete picture rather than a stand-on-scale.

InBody Touch self-service touchscreen

INTERACTIVE REVIEW

InBody Touch

A self-service touchscreen that walks you through your results before you leave — muscle/fat analysis, segmental lean, ECW ratio, phase angle, visceral fat. Take the deeper view at your own pace.

InBody InGrip hand grip strength dynamometer

FUNCTIONAL STRENGTH

InGrip

Hand grip strength — a validated proxy for whole-body functional capacity, mortality risk, and recovery from illness. Two squeezes per hand. Measured digitally to the tenth of a pound.

BSM170 medical-grade stadiometer for height measurement

EXACT HEIGHT

BSM170 Stadiometer

Medical-grade height measurement to the millimeter. Reported height vs. measured height is one of the most common sources of error in BMI and InBody calculations — we re-measure every visit.

Every one of these results is on the printed sheet you take home with the $45 InBody Scan. They’re also what the Comprehensive Metabolic Assessment uses for the InBody portion of its report.


Beyond the scan

The in-clinic scan is one layer.

When your case calls for more, the Metabolic Blueprint adds deep lab testing — about 95 blood markers, GI-MAP (gut), DUTCH (hormones), and intestinal permeability — read and interpreted by Dr Jared, then turned into a plan.

Three ways to get started

Pick the assessment that fits where you are.

Any of these is a good start. Here’s how to think about which one fits you.

The InBody Scan ($45) — for the curious. A 30-second self-service scan; full results on the InBody Touch screen, synced to your phone. Most patients start here.

The RMR test ($165) — for anyone serious about nutrition or weight. A 10-minute breath test of your actual resting metabolic rate, with a quick walk-through from Dr Jared.

The Comprehensive Metabolic Assessment ($195) — the full picture: both tests, a clinical interpretation with Dr Jared, and a written report you take home.

All three are open to the public — you don’t need to be a TCM patient. If you want body composition and resting metabolism measured together, the Comprehensive Metabolic Assessment combines the InBody scan and RMR in one visit.

“As someone who is constantly trying to optimize my health and performance, I’ve found Dr. Jared to be an invaluable asset. He’s helped me get to a much deeper understanding of my health and the metrics and tools I should be using to keep track along the way.”
