When this measurement of the electrical resistance (impedance) is considered alongside constants
and/or individual values (age, height, gender, activity level), the body fat percentage and other vari-
ables in the body can be calculated. Muscle tissue and water conduct electricity well and therefore
have a lower resistance. In contrast, bones and fat tissue have low conductivity as the fat cells and
bones are barely able to conduct the current due to very high levels of resistance.
The electrical contact to the body is enhanced through 4 hand electrodes and 4 foot electrodes
to achieve a higher measurement accuracy and better analysis. This sensitive analysis technology
means readings may change slightly when measurements are repeated. This is caused by changes
during the impedance measurement (e.g. different electrical contact to the electrodes by the hands
and feet, different distribution of water in the body).
Please note that the values calculated by the diagnostic bathroom scale only represent an approx-
imation of the actual medical analytical values for the body. Only a specialist doctor can precisely
establish the body fat, body water, muscle percentage and bone structure using medical methods
(e.g. computer tomography).
