Where can I get a DEXA scan in Jacksonville?

DexaFit Jacksonville offers DEXA body composition scans at 6817 Southpoint Parkway, Suite 2004, Jacksonville, FL 32216, in the Southpoint corridor serving Southside, Baymeadows, San Marco, and the greater Duval County area. A DEXA scan reads fat, lean muscle, visceral fat, and bone density region by region, with results the same visit.

What is the most accurate way to measure body fat?

A DEXA (dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry) scan is the clinical reference method for body composition, measured to about 98 percent accuracy, or within 2 percent. Smart scales and handheld devices can be 8 to 15 percent off because they estimate from electrical signals. DexaFit Jacksonville in Southpoint uses a clinical-grade DEXA protocol.

What are the benefits of a VO2 Max test in Jacksonville?

VO2 Max is your body's peak rate of oxygen use and the strongest single predictor of how long you stay healthy. In a study of 122,007 people (Mandsager et al., JAMA 2018), the least fit had a roughly 5 times higher risk of death than the most fit. DexaFit Jacksonville measures your true VO2 Max so training targets a real number, not a wrist estimate.

How is resting metabolic rate (RMR) measured?

RMR is measured with indirect calorimetry: you breathe into a device that reads oxygen use and carbon dioxide output to calculate the calories your body burns at rest. Calculator estimates can be 20 to 30 percent off. DexaFit Jacksonville measures your RMR directly so nutrition runs on your real number.

What else can I book at DexaFit Jacksonville?

Beyond DEXA, VO2 Max, and RMR, DexaFit Jacksonville offers biomarker lab tests, GLP-1 weight loss support, and red light therapy. You can book any test online and combine two or three in a single visit to the Southpoint location, with results reviewed by a specialist the same visit.
