(LMI), a leading provider of products for the assessment of body composition in infants, children, and adults. As a result, COSMED now also provides the most accurate body composition products based on Air Displacement Plethysmography technology, considered the “Practical Gold Standard” in body composition assessment.
Former LMI products, now part of the COSMED product line, include the BOD POD® and the PEA POD® Body Composition Tracking Systems, which are used extensively in university and medical research, clinical, athletic, military, and health and wellness settings throughout the world.
