BODY WATER -WHY MEASURE IT? Body water is the single most important

component of body weight. It represents over half of your total weight and almost

two thirds of your lean body mass (predominantly muscle). Water performs a number

of important roles in the body: All the cells in the body, whether in the skin, glands,

muscles, brain or anywhere else, can only function properly if they have enough water.

Water also plays a vital part in regulating the body’s temperature balance, particularly

through perspiration. The combination of your weight and fat measurement could

appear to be ‘normal’ but your body hydration level could be insucient for healthy

living.

For those using Athlete Mode: note that athletes may have a lower body fat range

and a higher body water range than shown above, depending on their type of sport

or activity. Body water measurement results are influenced by the proportion of body

fat and muscle. If the proportion of body fat is high, or the proportion of muscle is

low then the body water results will tend to be low. It is important to remember that

measurements such as body weight, body fat and body water are tools for you to use

as part of your healthy lifestyle. As short term fluctuations are normal, we suggest

you chart your progress over time, rather than focus on a single days reading.

The Body Water % ranges published are for guidance only. Professional medical

guidance should always be sought before embarking on diet and exercise

programmes.

WHY SHOULD I KNOW MY MUSCLE MASS? According to the American College

of Sports Medicine (ASCM), lean muscle mass may decrease by nearly 50 percent

between the ages of 20 and 90. If you don’t do anything to replace that loss you’re

losing muscle and increasing fat. It is also important to know your muscle mass

% during weight reduction. At rest, the body burns approximately 110 additional

calories for each kilo of muscle gained. Some advantages of gaining muscle mass

include:

• Reversing the decline in strength, bone density and muscle mass that

accompanies age

• Maintenance of flexible joints

• Guide weight reduction when combined with a healthy diet.

This product is for domestic use only. Pregnant women should only use the weight

CAUTION : Do not use this product if you have a pacemaker or other medical device

fitted. If in doubt, consult your doctor.

WHAT DOES MY BMI VALUE MEAN? Body Mass Index (BMI) is an index of weight-

for-height that is commonly used to classify underweight, overweight and obesity in

adults. This scale calculates your BMI value for you. The BMI categories shown in the

chart and table below are recognised by the WHO (World Health Organisation) and

can be used to interpret your BMI value.
