The proportion of water in the body
The proportion of water in the body in % is normally within the following range:
Male

Female

10 - 100 <45 45 - 60 % >60
Body fat contains relatively little water. Therefore, in people with a high body
fat content, the proportion of water can be below the standard of value. On the

related water. Alternatively, contact your doctor. In principle, a high proportion of
water in the body should be sought.
The proportion of muscle mass
The proportion of muscle mass in % is normally within the following range:
