MSM, also known as methyl sulfonyl methane, is a compound found naturally in foods such as cowâs milk, meat, seafood, fruits and vegetables. MSM is thought to work by contributing sulfur. Itâs found in capsule or tablet forms.
Simply explained, BIA measures the impedance or resistance to the signal as it travels through the water that is found in muscle and fat. The more muscle a person has, the more water their body can hold. The greater the amount of water in a person's body, the easier it is for the current to pass through it. The more fat, the more resistance to the current. BIA is safe and it does not hurt. In fact, the signal used in body fat monitors can not be felt at all either by an adult or child.
You can measure resistance of an electronic circuit using an ohmmeter, which is a standard feature found in most multimeters. The procedure is simple: First, you disconnect all voltage sources from the circuit; then, you touch the ohmmeterâs two probes to the ends of the circuit and read the resistance (in ohms) on the meter. Resistance is measured in units called ohms, represented by the Greek letter omega (Ï). The standard definition of one ohm is simple: Itâs the amount of resistance required to allow one ampere of current to flow when one volt of potential is applied to the circuit.
