Factors influencing measurement readings

Analysis is based on the measurement of the body's electrical resistance. Eating and drinking habits during the course of the day and individual lifestyle affect the water balance. This is noticeable by the fluctuations in the display.

In order to ensure that the results of analysis are a accurate and consistent as possible, keep the measurement conditions constant, as only in this way will you be able to observe changes over an extended period.

Other factors can affect water balance:

After a bath, the body fat reading may be too low and the body water reading too high.
After a meal, readings can be higher.
Women may experience fluctuations due to the menstrual cycle.

Due to loss of water caused by illness or after physical activity (sport). After taking exercise, wait for 6 to 8 hours before carrying out the next measurement.

Varying or implausible results can occur in the case of:

Persons with a high temperature, symptoms of oedema or osteoporosis
Persons undergoing dialysis treatment
Persons taking cardiovascular medicine
Pregnant women
Athletes who undertake more than 10 hours of intensive training per week and have a resting pulse rate of under 60 / min
Competitive athletes and body builders
Persons under the age of 17.
