LOS PRINCIPIOS PARA CALCULAR EL PORCENTAJE DE GRASA CORPORAL
La Báscula/Monitor de Grasa Corporal Tanita le permite medir en casa el
porcentaje de grasa corporal tan fácilmente como toma su peso.
¿Qué es el porcentaje de grasa corporal?
El porcentaje de grasa corporal es el porcentaje de grasa que tiene en su
cuerpo. El tener demasiada grasa corporal se ha vinculado a condiciones
tales como tensión alta, enfermedades cardíacas, diabetes, cáncer y otras
condiciones discapacitantes.
El método AIB
El monitor de grasa corporal/báscula de Tanita utiliza la técnica AIB
(análisis de impedancia bioeléctrica). En este método, se envía una señal
eléctrica segura de poca intensidad por el cuerpo. Es difícil para esta señal
atravesar la grasa del cuerpo humano, pero le es fácil fluir por la humedad
de los músculos y otros tejidos corporales. La dificultad con que la señal
fluye a través de una sustancia se denomina impedancia. Así que, cuanta
más resistencia, o impedancia, encuentra la señal, más alta es la lectura de
grasa corporal.
Fluctuaciones del porcentaje de grasa corporal
en un día
Los niveles de hidratación del cuerpo pueden afectar las lecturas de la
grasa corporal. Por lo general, las lecturas son más elevadas al levantarse
de la cama, ya que el cuerpo tiende a estar deshidratado después de dormir
toda la noche. Para conseguir la lectura más precisa, las lecturas del
porcentaje de grasa corporal se deberían obtener a la misma hora cada día
bajo condiciones constantes.
Además de este ciclo básico de fluctuaciones en las lecturas diarias de
grasa corporal, pueden ocurrir variaciones debido a los cambios de
hidratación del cuerpo experimentados por comer, beber, la menstruación,
enfermedades, hacer ejercicio y bañarse. Las lecturas diarias de grasa
corporal son únicas de cada persona y dependen del estilo de vida, trabajo
y actividades de cada uno.
El gráfico de la izquierda muestra un ejemplo de las fluctuaciones del
porcentaje de grasa corporal a lo largo del día.

USEFUL FEATURES
SWITCHING THE WEIGHT MODE
AUTOMATIC SHUT-DOWN FUNCTION
Tanita Body Fat Monitor/Scales allow you to measure both weight and body fat percentage simultaneously and easily,
simply by stepping on a scale.
Your Body Fat Monitor/Scale can be set for Male or Female, Standard or Athlete Adult, or Children (ages 7-17).
Personal data (Female/Male, Age, Height, etc.) can be pre-set and stored in memory for up to two people.
Unique Healthy Range Indicator automatically displays where your body fat percentage falls within the Body Fat Ranges chart (p.2).
The unit emits a helpful “beep” when activated, and also at various stages in the programming and measuring process.
Listen for these sounds which will prompt you to step on the unit, look at your readings, or confirm a setting.
Your Body Fat Monitor/Scale can measure weight in three different modes: st-lb (British stone-pounds), kg (kilograms), or
lb (pounds). If you would like to change that setting, or if at any point another setting has been inadvertently entered,
follow these steps:
The automatic shut-down function shuts off the power automatically in the following cases:
If you interrupt the measurement process. The power will shut down automatically within 10 to 20 seconds,
depending upon the type of operation.
If an extraordinary weight is applied to the platform.
If you make a mistake during measurement or a key or button operation.
During programming, if you do not touch any of the keys or buttons within 60 seconds.
After you have completed the measuring process.
Note: If the power shuts off automatically, repeat the steps from “Setting and Storing Data in Memory” (p.5).
1.Press the Set and Up buttons simultaneously. Release the buttons, the
display will flash.
2.Press the Up button to cycle through each weight mode until
the mode that you require is displayed.
3.Then press the Set button. The unit will beep twice in short succession,
and the display screen will flash to confirm your selection and store it in
memory.
Note: If weight mode is set to pounds or stone-pounds, the height programming mode will
be automatically set to feet and inches. Similarly, if kilograms is selected, height
will be automatically set to centimetres.
