Page 7: Body Water
Body water About 60% of an adult’s body is made up of water. This varies according to certain factors: older people have a lower water level than younger people, and men have a higher water level than women. The difference between men and women is based on women’s higher body fat mass. -
Page 8: Muscle Mass
Muscle mass The muscle mass is the body’s motor. The most of the energy we use is con- sumed by muscles. The muscles ensure that the body temperature is main- tained and are the basis of our physical performance. Checking the muscle mass is particularly important for people with weight or fat problems. -
Page 9: Reasons For Imprecise Measurement Results
Reasons for imprecise measurement results The analysis is based on measuring electrical body resistance. Eating and drink- ing habits over the day and your personal lifestyle affect the level of water. This is noticeable from variations in the measurements displayed. In order to achieve an analysis result that is as precise and repeatable as pos- sible, ensure that the measurement conditions are the same because this is the only way to observe changes over a longer period of time. -
