Explanation of the results
Eight highly accurate electrodes allow precise body measurement. The body analysis scale
calculates your body values with the so-called
bioelectrical impedance analysis
(BIA method).
Light electrical signals are being send through the scale electrodes as well as the corresponding
hand-electrode through your body. The body water is determined according to the
Brozek
formula and the measured flow resistance (bioelectric impedance) and can be converted into
the body fat percentage.
Of course, these values cannot replace clinically-tested parameters, but they are ideal for
keeping your body healthy.
Your smart scale S7 automatically compares your values with the recommended / standard
values. Our table of values are
verified by the
Bayerische TelemedAllianz
(
BTA
) located in
Ingolstadt in the south of Germany. The BTA bundles many different fields and interests in the
eHealth and telemedicine sector. Thereby being promoted as the central Bavarian telemedicine
institute by the Bavarian Ministry for Health and Nursing.

Body Mass Index
The body mass index (BMI) is used to rank the weight. The BMI is not very conclusive as an
absolute value. It must be associated with the gender and age of the person.
The BMI is calculated as follows:
BMI = kg / m²
