Percent Body Water

gerrypete1776

I drink at least two 8-oz cups of black coffee every morning and three 32-oz bottles of water every day and yet my percent body water is between 49 and 50 percent measured by my smart scale. I am 71 years old and would like to know how to maintain my percent body water between 50 and 60 percent.

Those scales are not at all accurate.

It sounds like you are drinking plenty of water, so unless you are exhibiting signs of dehydration and as long as your urine is not dark, you are most likely doing fine.
