(organic substances, inorganic substances and water). Little influence can be exerted on bone mass, but
it will vary slightly within the influencing factors (weight, height, age, gender). no recognised guidelines or
recommendations relating to bone mass measurement.
ATTENTION:
Please do not confuse bone mass with bone density.
Bone density can be determined only by means of a medical examination (e.g. computer tomogra
-
phy, ultrasound). It is therefore not possible to draw conclusions concerning changes to the bones
and bone hardness (e.g. osteoporosis) using this scale.
BMR
The basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the amount of energy required by the body at complete rest in order to
maintain its basic functions (e.g. when lying in bed 24 hours a day). This value is primarily dependent on
weight, height and age.
It is displayed on the diagnostic scale in the unit kcal/day and calculated using the scientifically recognised
Harris-Benedict equation.
This is the amount of energy that is required by your body under all circumstances and must be re-supplied
to the body in the form of food. If your energy intake is below this level in the longer term, this can result in
damage to health.
AMR
The active metabolic rate (AMR) is the amount of energy required daily by the body in its active state. The
energy consumption of a human being rises with increasing physical activity and is measured on the diag
-
nostic scale in relation to the degree of activity entered (1– 5).
To maintain your existing weight, the amount of energy used must be reintroduced into the body in the
form of food and drink. If less energy is introduced than is used over a longer period of time, your body will
obtain the difference largely from the amount of fat stored and your weight will decrease. If, on the other
hand, over a longer period of time more energy is introduced than the total active metabolic rate (AMR)
calculated, your body will be unable to burn off the excess energy, and the excess will be stored in the
body as fat and your weight will increase.
Results in relation to time
Remember that only long-term trends are important. Short-term fluctuations in weight over a few
days are usually the result of a loss of fluid.
The interpretation of the results will depend on changes in your overall weight and body fat, body water and
muscle percentages, as well as on the period during which these changes take place. Sudden changes within
days must be distinguished from medium term changes (over weeks) and long term changes (months).
A basic rule is that short term changes in weight almost exclusively represent changes in water content,
whereas medium and long term changes may also involve the fat and muscle percentages.
•
If your weight reduces over the short term, but your body fat percentage increases or remains the same,
you have merely lost water – e.g. after a training session, sauna session or a diet restricted only to rapid
weight loss.
•
If your weight increases over the medium term and the body fat percentage falls or stays the same, then
you could have built up valuable muscle mass.
•
If your weight and body fat percentage fall simultaneously then your diet is working – you are losing fat
mass.
•
Ideally you should support your diet with physical activity, fitness or power training.
This way you can increase your muscle percentage over the medium term.
•
Body fat, body water or muscle percentages should not be added (certain elements of muscle tissue
also contain body water).

User assignment
It is possible to assign up to 8 scale users for a weight-only measurement (with shoes) and for a diagnosis
measurement (bare feet).
For a new measurement, the scale assigns the measurement to the user whose most recently saved
measurement falls within +/- 2 kg of this and, if a diagnosis was possible, +/- 2% of the body fat.
