# Hume Pod UK

> The Hume Pod is a home body composition scale that measures 45 readings per weigh-in — including body fat, muscle mass, visceral fat, metabolic age, BMR and full segmental analysis — using patented dual-point bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) verified at 98% clinical-grade accuracy. Official UK store: humepod.uk.

## What it is

The Hume Pod pairs a floor scale platform with a handheld sensor bar to complete a full-body circuit. Unlike feet-only smart scales, it reads through all four contact points — both feet and both hands — giving the sensor genuine body-wide data to work from, rather than a single-leg estimate stretched across the rest of the body.

It connects via Bluetooth to the free Hume Health app (iOS and Android). No subscription is required to access any of the 45 readings.
