The body water percentage is normally within the
following ranges:
MAN
Age
poor
10-100 < 50%
WOMAN
Age
poor
10-100 < 45%
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.
Body water measurement with this scale is not suitable
for drawing medical conclusions, for example concerning
age-related water retention. If necessary ask your
physician. Basically, a high body water percentage should
be the aim.
