INFORMATION
The measuring principle
This scale operates based on bioelectrical impedance analysis, BIA, where
imperceptible, completely harmless and safe alternating current is used
for the measurement of body metrics within a few seconds.
With the measurement of electrical resistance (impedance) and the
inclusion of constants as well as individual values (age, height, gender,
and activity level), a person’s body fat and other body metrics can be
determined. Muscle tissue and water are characterized by good electrical
conductivity and therefore have a lower resistance.
Bone and fat tissue, on the other hand, are characterized by low
conductivity as fat cells and bones hardly conduct current due to their
high resistance.
Note that the values obtained from the diagnostic scale represent just an
approximation to the actual medical analytical values of the body. Only a
medical specialist is able to exactly determine body fat, water content,
muscle and bone mass thanks to medical procedures (e.g. with a CAT
scan).
General tips
If possible, always weigh yourself at the same time of day (preferably
in the morning), after using the toilet, on an empty stomach and
without clothing in order to achieve comparable results.
Important for the measurement:
The body fat can only be measured
with bare feet and slightly moistened soles (do not use lotion on
your feet, though). Very dry or calloused feet can lead to inaccurate
results due to strongly reduced conductivity.
Stand upright and still during the measurement process.
Wait for about 15 minutes after getting up for an even distribution of
the body water.
It is important to note that only the long-term tendency counts. In
general, short-term weight fluctuations in a period of a few days are
usually due to fluid loss. However, body water is vital for your well-
being.
