Editorial Review
If you're like most people, you're not drinking enough water. If you wait until you feel thirsty, your body is already suffering from the effects of mild dehydration. You continually lose water during the day through sweat, urine and breathing. The amount varies due to physical activity level, climatic conditions, illness, medications, hormone changes and poor nutrition. Monitoring your body water % allows you to quickly compensate if your levels are low. Your body will function more efficiently, you'll feel healthier and you'll reduce your risk of developing serious health problems. Tanita offers a solution for this common problem. Tanita's body water monitor scales use Bioelectric Impedance Analysis (BIA), the same accurate technology used for body fat monitoring. BIA sends a safe, low-level electrical signal through the body. The signal passes freely through the fluids contained in muscle tissue and blood, but it encounters difficulty when passing through fat tissue, which contains little water. By using the impedance reading, gender, height and weight, the scale can quickly and reliably calculate body fat and total body water percentages. In addition to Body Fat % and weight, this affordable Scale plus Body Fat Monitor with Body Water % allows users to monitor their Body Water %. The scale has a classic look in its white platform which matches with any decor in the bathroom. The scale has the weight capacity of 330 lb (increments of 0.2 lb) with 0.1% Body Fat and water increment. The scale has an easy to read LCD display and a 2 person memory. The weight only feature allows users to use the scale as a regular bath scale. The Guest Mode allows a guest to check body fat without storing personal data in memory.
