Notes on the ascertained values
The proportion of body fat gives the amount of fat as a percentage of the total weight
of the body. A blanket recommendation for this value does not exist, since this depends
significantly on sex (because of different physiques) and age.
Body fat is vital for day-to-day body function. It protects organs, cushions joints,
regulates body temperature, stores vitamins, and serves the body as an energy store.
For women, a body fat proportion between 10% and 13% is essential; for men,
between 2% and 5% with the exception of competitive sportsmen.
The proportion of body fat is not an unambiguous indicator of health. Excessive body
weight and a too-high proportion of body fat are being linked with the appearance of
many diseases of affluence such as diabetes, cardiovascular illnesses, etc.
Physical inactivity and poor diet are often triggers for these diseases. There is a clear
causal connection between excess weight and physical inactivity.
A considerable part of the human body consists of water. This body water is variably
distributed throughout the whole body. Lean muscle tissue contains about 75%
water, blood around 83% water, body fat approx. 25% water and bones have a water
proportion of about 22%.
In men approx. 60% of body mass consists of water.
In women, that value lies around 55% (determined by a higher proportion of body
fat).
Of this total body water approx. two thirds is stored in the cells and is therefore called
intracellular water. The other third is extracellular water.
