A smart body composition monitor to support you during a particularly health-conscious time in your life

Editor: First of all, please tell us about your relationship with Withings.

Zhang: Withings was founded in France in 2008. In addition to Body+, Withings also manufactures and sells other health care products such as smart watches and smart sleep pads, and is a widely recognized smart device manufacturer in Europe and the United States. We are the exclusive distributor of Withings products in Japan.

Editor: I understand that the Body+ not only functions as a regular body composition monitor, but also has functions that take pregnant women and babies into consideration.

Zhang: Withings has been developing products with the goal of promoting health at every stage of life. During pregnancy and the early postpartum period in a person's life, they need to pay particular attention to their health. Body+" was created as a product that meticulously cares for the health of mother and child during these times.

 

Pregnancy Mode, which tells you how your weight is changing and what nutrition you should be taking

Editor: Can you tell us what exactly the function is?

Zhang: The greatest feature of Withings products is that you can synchronize your weight and other records with a free app called Health Mate. The Body+ app has a pregnancy mode and a baby mode, and in the pregnancy mode, you can enter information about your pregnancy on the app, and it will automatically calculate your due date. Also, just by using this app and getting on the scale every day, you can track your weight from before you got pregnant and whether you are gaining appropriately. It also gives you advice on what you should be eating, depending on the stage of your pregnancy. And if you combine it with a Withings smartwatch or smart sleep pad, you can centrally manage your exercise and sleep quality on the app.
