According to the World Health Organisation (WHO 2001), the percentage of body water should lie within the
following ranges:
Women: 50 – 55 %
Men: 60 – 65 %
Children: 65 – 75 %
In persons with a high proportion of fat, the percentage of body water obtained is very often below the sta-
ted guidelines.
