What Is Body Fat Percentage?

Body fat percentage represents the proportion of your total body weight that comes from fat tissue. Unlike BMI, body fat percentage gives a more accurate picture of body composition by distinguishing fat mass from muscle, bone, and water.

Maintaining a healthy body fat percentage helps reduce the risk of obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and metabolic disorders.
