Barbara J. Moore, president of animal feeding Shape Up America! "Monitoring body fat percentage is no longer just a research technique. It can now be conveniently done in the home or in a health club and is an improvement over the use of BMI to assess disease risk." For people who want to take action, Shape Up America! has added a "Body Fat Lab" to its web site - www.shapeup.org - which is designed to identify the healthy range of body fat percentage and animal feeding the disease risk associated with higher levels of body fat percentage. The Body Fat Lab is an interactive tool that will be of greatest use to those who already know their body fat percentage. For those who don't, Shape Up America! will continue to offer the proxy of BMI as an indicator of disease risk. The Heymsfield study is significant because it is the first to convert BMI into body fat percentage in adults.
