Depending on the age, human body exists till 80% of water (see table below). Water serves important metabolism functions: it regulates body temperature and transports nutrients between cells and organs. Since body loses water all the time, water must be replaced to save from water deficiency, which causes a concentration of toxins in body. It can even be life-threatening if human body loses more than 20% of its average water content.

Bioelectric Impedance Analysis (BIA)
Our handy Body Fat and Water Level Analyzer is working with the BIA technology. This means that a low, non-noticeable and absolute innocuous voltage is conducted through the body. Then the impedance (resistance) the voltage meets on its way through the body is being measured. The more muscles the body has, the more water it contents and the voltage can easily pass the body. The more fat the body has, the bigger the resistance is that the voltage meets on its way through the body. On the basis of measured impedance and personal settings (height, weight, sex, age), the body fat and water content will be analyzed within a few seconds. 10 memories per user allow watching the results over a longer period.
