Fat % •Fat % is amount of body fat as a proportion of body weight.
FFM TBW %
•Fat Free Mass is comprised of muscle, bone, tissue, water, and all other fat free mass in the body.
BMR
TBW
•Basal Metabolic Rate represents the total energy expended by the body to maintain normal functions at rest such as respiration and circulation.
•Total Body Water is the amount of water retained in the body. TBW is said to comprise between 50% - 70% of total body weight. Generally, men tend to have higher water weight than women due to a greater amount of muscle.
Visceral fat rating •- Visceral fat rating feature indicates the rating of visceral fat.
Ideal body weight •Ideal body weight is a value for which the BMI is 22.
Degree of obesity •Calculated as (weight) – (standard weight) / (standard weight) × 100.
Impedance •Impedance (This does not affect judgment of the measurement results.)
Bone mass •Bone mineral amount included in the entire bone.
Metabolic age •Metabolic age is evaluated young when a muscular amount is larger, and BMR is higher.
BMI •Calculated with “weight (kg) / height (m)2” •Desirable Range 18.5 - 24.9 * The standard value is for the Standard mode. In the case of the Athletic mode, the standard value is just a reference. And for those who are 17 years old or younger, only the body fat % is displayed as the standard value. The muscle mass, total body water and the estimated bone mass for those who are 17 years old or younger are for reference.

- Criteria based on body fat percentage
Your body water levels naturally fluctuate throughout the day and night. Your body tends to be dehydrated after a longnight and there are differences in fluid distribution between day and night. Eating large meals, drinking alcohol, menstruation, illness, exercising, and bathing may cause variations in your hydration levels.
How to use
Total Body Water Percentage is the total amount of fluid in a personÅfs body expressed as a percentage of their total weight. Water plays a vital role in many of the body's processes and is found in every cell, tissue and organ. Maintaining a healthy total body water percentage will ensure the body functions efficiently and will reduce the risk of developing associated health problems.

Body fat percentage is the amount of body fat as a proportion of your body weight. Reducing excess levels of body fat has shown to reduce the risk of certain conditions such as high blood pressure, heart disease,diabetes and cancer. The chart below shows the healthy ranges for body fat.
- What is total body water percentage?
Your body water percentage reading should act as a guide and should not be used to specifically determine your absolute recommended total body water percentage. It is important to look for long-term changes in total body water percentage and maintain a consistent, healthy total body water percentage. Drinking a large quantity of water in one sitting will not instantly change your water level. In fact, it will increase your body fat reading due to the additional weight gain. Please monitor all readings over time to track the relative change. Every individual varies but as a guide the average total body water percentage ranges for a healthy adult are: Female : 45 to 60% Male : 50 to 65% Source : Based on Tanita's Internal Research Note: The total body water percentage will tend to decrease as the percentage of body fat increases. A person with a high percentage of body fat may fall below the average body water percentage. As you lose body , fat the total body water percentage should gradually move towards the typical range given above.
- What is visceral fat rating? Healthy Range Indicator Your Body Composition Monitor automatically compares your body fat percentage reading to the Healthy Body Fat Range chart. After your body fat percentage has been calculated, a black bar will flash along the bottom of the display, identifying where you fall within the Body Fat Ranges for your age and gender. (-) : Underfat; below the healthy body fat range. Increased risk for health problems. (0) : Healthy; within the healthy body fat percentage range for your age/gender. (+) : Overfat; above the healthy range. Increased risk for health problems. (++) : Obese; high above the healthy body fat range. Greatly increased risk of obesity-related health problems. *Note : If you select Athlete mode, the unit will not display the Healthy Range Indicator. Athletes may have a lower body fat range depending on their particular sport or activity.

This feature indicates the rating of visceral fat in your body. Visceral fat is the fat that is in the internal abdominal cavity, surrounding the vital organs in the trunk (abdominal) area. Research shows that even if your weight and body fat remains constant, as you get older the distribution of fat changes and is more likely to shift to the trunk area especially post menopause. Ensuring you, have healthy levels of visceral fat my reduce the risk of certain diseases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, and the onset of type 2 diabetes. The Tanita Body Composition Monitor will provide you with a visceral fat rating from 1 – 59. Rating from 1 to 12 Indicates you have a healthy level of visceral fat. Continue monitoring your rating to ensure that it stays within the healthy range. Rating from 13 – 59 Indicates you have an excess level of visceral fat. Consider making changes in your lifestyle possibly through diet changes or increasing exercise. Source : Data from Columbia University (New York) & Tanita Institute (Tokyo) Note: •Even if you have a low body fat rate, you may have a high visceral fat level. •For medical diagnosis, consult a physician.
