Body fat contains relatively little water. Therefore persons with a high body fat percentage have body water percentages
below the recommended values. With endurance athletes, however, the recommended values could be exceeded due to
low fat percentages and high muscle percentage. This scale is unsuitable for measuring body water in order to draw medical
conclusions concerning age-related water retention, for example. If necessary ask your physician.
The BMI (Body Mass Index) is normally within the following ranges:
under weight normal
< 18.5 18.5 ~ 25
The muscle percentage is normally within the following ranges:
age
10-80
Like the rest of our body, our bones are subject to the natural development, degeneration and ageing processes. Bone mass
increases rapidly in childhood and reaches its maximum between 30 and 40 years of age. Bone mass reduces slightly with
increasing age. You can reduce this degeneration somewhat with healthy nutrition (particularly calcium and vitamin D)
and regular exercise. With appropriate muscle building, you can also strengthen your bone structure. Note that this scale will
not show you the calcium content of your bones, but will measure the weight of all bone constituents (organic substances,
inorganic substances and water).
The bone mass is normally within the following ranges:
weight < 60 kg
bonemass 2,5 kg
Attention: Please do not confuse bone mass with bone density. Bone density can be determined only by means of a medical
examination (e.g. computer tomography, ultrasound). It is therefore not possible to draw conclusions concerning changes
to the bones and bone hardness (e.g. osteoporosis) using this scale.
Little influence can be exerted on bone mass, but it will vary slightly within the influencing factors (weight, height, age, gender).
The basal metabolic rate is the amount of energy required by the body at complete rest to maintain its basic functions.
This value largely depends on weight, height and age.
This is displayed on the scale as the amount of energy that your body requires in any case and it must be reintroduced into
your body in the form of nutrition. If you take on less energy over the longer term, this can be harmful to your health.
