Whole-body phase angle as a non-invasive indicator of low-grade inflammation in generally healthy adults

Key Points

• Low-grade inflammation is associated with altered phase angle in healthy adults, indicating a potential biomarker.
• The study finds that higher phase angles correspond with lower levels of inflammation as measured by biomarkers.
• Observational analysis uses bioelectrical impedance measurements to assess phase angle in a sample of healthy individuals.
• These findings support the use of phase angle as an easy, non-invasive indicator of underlying inflammation.
