Body Fat
Standard
Reason
Very High Percent fat at this level
indicates the person
is seriously obese
to a degree that this
can have adverse
health consequences.
Maintaining this level of
fat for a long period of
time places the person at
risk of hypertension, heart
disease, and diabetes.
Consult your doctor on a
long-term weight loss and
exercise program.
High It is likely that the
person is obese. Careful
implementation and
monitoring of diet and
exercise is recommended.
Optimal This is the ideal level of
body fat for the average
person.
Low For athletes, this is a
desirable level of body
fat. For regular persons,
a regular diet should be
considered to improve
the balance of body
composition.

low. Consult a physician
for advice.

How Body Fat Percentage Fluctuates
It is recommended that you choose a
time slot to measure body fat and then
monitor it regularly at the same condition.
Ideally, body hydration level is most stable
during late afternoon, right before dinner.
Please note the many factors may alter
an individual’s body fat reading, including
alcohol consumption, taking a bath or
exercising, waking up, eating, fever and
illnesses.
