Why is water content such an important measure?
After oxygen, water is the most important of the nutritive elements
which the body requires to work efficiently. Water plays an essential role
in almost all bodily functions and contributes notably to regulate the
body temperature, carry nutrients, moisturize and purify the skin,
improve the digestive system, lubricate joints. Every process in our body
is dependent on water and most people do not drink enough water. By
keeping your body liquid level under control, you can react quickly to
regulate fluids when necessary.

MEASURING METHOD

The measuring method accepted by scientists worldwide is called
"Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis". With this method, a weak and
imperceptible electric current travels through the body (this current is
totally harmless for the human body*). The current, which has the
capacity to circulate more easily through liquid in our muscles than
through fat, goes through the legs and allows measuring the body
electric resistance. This resistance depends on the quantity of water in
the body (our muscles contain about 73% of water).
After measuring the electric resistance, this value can be used to
calculate directly the muscular mass of our lower limbs. Our gender
and our height are taken into account to determine muscular mass as
a whole.
On the contrary, body fat acts as an insulating substance (it reduces
the capacity of the current to go through) and thus cannot be
calculated directly. It is more about determining the measured weight
indirectly using the formula Fat mass = Body weight - Muscular mass.
This method allows us to take the whole-body fat into account. The
water content of the body is measured by the calculation of the 73% of
the muscular mass.
