The body fat content is shown as the amount of stored fat as a percentage of total body
weight. There is no generally accepted set value as this varies significantly according to
gender (due to the different build) and age. Body fat is vital for basic body functions. It’ s
protecting organs, cushioning joints, regulating body temperature, storing vitamins and
serves the body as energy storage. As essential for women a minimum body fat
proportion between 10% and 13% and for men between 10% and 13% is requested -
with the exception of competitive athletes.
Body fat is not a clear indicator for health. Too high body weight and a too high body fat
proportion are linked to the incidence of many civilization diseases such as diabetes,
cardiovascular diseases, etc. Lack of movement and improper nutrition are often the
prime course for these diseases. There is an obvious direct relationship between
overweight and lack of movement.
A significant part of the human body consists of body water. This body water is
differently distributed throughout the whole body. Lean muscle tissue contains approx.
75% body water, blood approx. 83% body water, body fat approx. 25% body water and
bones have a water content of about 22%.
The average total body water percentage range for healthy men is between 50 – 65%.
The equivalent value for women is approximately 45 – 60% due to the higher body fat
content. About two third of the total body water is stored in the cells and is therefore
called intra cellular. The other third of the total body water is extra cellular body water.

There are no validated standards for muscle mass.
Due to menstrual cycle and hormonal changes women experience greater changes in
their hydration level. Retaining fluid may cause the weight to fluctuate day-to-day. This will
also affect the body fat percentage readings. If the hydration level is high the body fat
percentage is slightly less – a less hydration level means the body fat percentage is slightly
higher.
There is no healthy risk for pregnancy. The body analyzer is absolutely safe for the mother
and her unborn baby. However, due to the changes in water content in the mother’ s
body, the readings should not be interpreted as completely accurate.
ADE Germany takes no responsibility for any damages or losses caused by the use of this
body analyzer scale or for Third Party claims. This product is exclusively intended for
