Intelligent Scales Avoid Inaccurate Data: Key is to Pay Attention and Record Changes

Human body is a complex object, and the conductivity of different parts of the body varies with changes in water content and mineral content. Moreover, the resistance value of the human body is influenced by many factors, and many factors can affect the measurement results. Small fluctuations at different times are normal, so body fat scales have a reasonable range of error. The absolute accuracy of body fat measurement "has a lot of room for improvement," and the data measured by general body fat scales "cannot be trusted to be absolutely accurate, but can serve as a basic reference value."


Solutions for inaccurate data from intelligent body fat scales


Is a body fat scale useless if it is not accurate? In fact, although the accuracy of body fat scales is somewhat lacking, if used scientifically, the data collected over a long period of time has some reference value. By understanding the reasonable changes in one's body fat and adjusting one's work and lifestyle habits accordingly, as well as following the exercise guidelines provided by the body fat scale, it can help to improve one's health. Therefore, if you have already purchased a intelligent body fat scale, it is not necessary to worry about its accuracy, but it is important to pay attention to recording changes in data and adjusting your diet and exercise plan accordingly. Body fat scales are more capable of reflecting a person's obesity status than traditional weight scales, and this is beyond doubt. Therefore, it is recommended that users who want to lose weight should consider purchasing a body fat scale.


Methods for reducing error when using intelligent body fat scales


  • When weighing oneself, it is best to use a relatively flat and hard surface, and avoid soft surfaces such as blankets and foam to ensure the accuracy of the data. Also, make sure that the four legs of the scale are placed steadily and do not have any suspension.

  • The culprit that affects the results of healthkeep body fat scales is the change in exercise and body water content. Before measuring, the body should not be dehydrated and one should not engage in strenuous exercise, and do not measure after consuming large amounts of food or water or after taking a shower, otherwise the measurement result will have large errors. Also, external factors such as the strength, tightness, palm humidity, and skin condition of the hand holding the body fat meter will also affect the measurement result.

  • To measure body fat, bone weight, and other information more accurately, please stand barefoot on the scale.

  • Generally, the most suitable time for measurement is 1 hour after getting up, 1 hour before going to bed, and 1 hour after meals, but you can also measure according to your own habits. However, every measurement should be taken at the same time each day. It is best to weigh oneself naked in the morning, so that the comparison of data from each day will be comparable.

  • If you move the scale and the display screen of the healthkeep body fat scale is still lit up, when the feet are lifted off the ground and placed steadily for the first weighing, the reading will increase by about 2 kg due to the automatic addition of the weight of the scale body. Wait until the display light goes out and then stand on it again, the reading will be normal. Therefore, the scale should generally be placed in a corner or fixed position and not moved frequently in order to avoid affecting the accuracy.
