To calculate the total amount of body water:
\[ WW = \frac{2}{3} \cdot BW \]
\[ WV = \frac{BW}{62.4} \]
Where:
Total Body Water (TBW) refers to the sum of all fluid within the body, including intracellular and extracellular fluids. It plays a crucial role in maintaining various physiological processes and overall health. TBW serves as the primary medium for transporting nutrients, electrolytes, and oxygen to cells, while also facilitating the removal of waste products and toxins. It helps maintain proper temperature regulation and aids in the lubrication of joints and organs. Additionally, TBW supports efficient digestion, absorption, and circulation.
Let's assume the following value:
Using the formula:
\[ WW = \frac{2}{3} \cdot 150 = 100 \text{ lbs} \]
\[ WV = \frac{150}{62.4} \approx 2.4038 \text{ ft³} \]
The Water Weight is 100 lbs and the Water Volume is approximately 2.4038 ft³.
Let's assume the following value:
Using the formula:
\[ WW = \frac{2}{3} \cdot 200 = 133.33 \text{ lbs} \]
\[ WV = \frac{200}{62.4} \approx 3.2051 \text{ ft³} \]
The Water Weight is approximately 133.33 lbs and the Water Volume is approximately 3.2051 ft³.
