3. Useful information

What is BMI?

Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple index of weight-for-height that is commonly used

to classify underweight, overweight and obesity in adults.

BMI uses the following simple formula to indicate the ratio between weight and

height of a person.

BMI = weight(kg) / height(m) / height (m)

If the fat level revealed by BMI is higher than the international standard, there is

an increased likelihood of common diseases. However, not all types of fat can be

revealed by BMI.

BMI

Less than 18.5

18.5 or more and less than 25

25 or more and less than 30

30 or more

The above index refers to the values for obesity judgment proposed by WHO(World

Health Organization).

What is Body Fat Percentage?

The body fat content is shown as the amount of stored fat as a percentage of total

body weight. There is no generally accepted set value as this varies significantly ac-

cording to gender (due to the different build) and age.

Body fat is vital for basic body functions. It's protecting organs, cushioning joints,

regulating body temperature, storing vitamins and serves the body as energy storage.

As essential for women a minimum body fat proportion between 10% and 13%

and for men between 10% and 13% is requested with the exception of competitive

athletes.

Body fat is not a clear indicator for health. Too high body weight and a too high

body fat proportion are linked to the incidence of many civilization diseases such as

diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, etc.

Lack of movement and improper nutrition are often the prime course for these diseas-

es. There is an obvious direct relationship between overweight and lack of movement.

Body Fat Fluctuations in a Day

Hydration levels in the body may affect body fat readings. Readings are usually high-

est in the early waking hours, since the body tends to be dehydrated after a long

night's sleep. For the most accurate reading, a person should take a body fat percent-

age readings at a consistent time of day under consistent conditions.

Designation by the WHO

Underweight

Normal

Overweight

Obese

Normal

Over fat

21.0 - 32.9

33.0 - 38.9

23.0 - 33.9

34.0 - 39.9

24.0 - 35.9

36.0 - 41.9

8.0 - 19.9

20.0 - 24.9

11.0 - 21.9

22.0 - 27.9

13.0 - 24.9

25.0 - 29.9

Besides this basic cycle of fluctuations in the daily body fat readings, variations may

be caused by hydration changes in the body due to eating, drinking, menstruation,

illness, exercising, and bathing. Daily body fat readings are unique to each person,

and depend upon one's lifestyle, job and activities.

What is body hydration percentage?

Total Body Hydration Percentage is the total amount of fluid in a person's body ex-

pressed as a percentage of their total weight.

Approximately 50-60% of the weight of a healthy person is water. 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.

What is Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)?

Regardless of your activity level, a minimum level of caloric intake is required to sus-

tain the body's everyday functions.

Known as the resting metabolism, this indicates how many calories you need to

ingest in order to provide enough energy for your body to function.
