Monitor Body Fat by Going to Toilet

There are some strange goings on in Japan at a company called Toto regarding innovative toilet design. No simple go and flush for these folks. No, they like technology; consequently, we have toilets that can give you an entire health assessment, including body fat percentage, your weight, glucose in your urine and blood pressure. How this is all possible via your daily "deposits" is beyond me. Next you know the toilet will nag you to eat more fiber.




I've been refreshing their page over and over in the hopes of seeing an image again. It was some cartoon characters showing off a toilet to a little girl and I just have to know what's the deal. It looked as if the toilet was talking. Is that it? A talking toilet for toddlers perhaps? "Hey, you. Yeah, you. Come over here," says Mr. Toilet.

More research to come ...
