Patent ID: 8536470

Claim:
A body composition monitor, comprising: means for measuring a body composition; means for storing a measured body composition value; and body composition comparison means for comparing the measured body composition value and a stored body composition value, wherein the body composition comparison means determines a body composition evaluation level by comparing a difference between the measured body composition value and the stored composition value with a first predetermined threshold value, the body composition monitor further comprising: means for inputting a body weight value; means for storing an inputted body weight; and body weight comparison means for comparing the inputted body weight and the stored body weight, wherein the body weight comparison means determines a body weight evaluation level by comparing a difference between the inputted body weight and the stored body weight with a second predetermined threshold value, the body composition monitor further comprising: body composition change determination means for determining a corrected body composition evaluation level by comparing the body composition evaluation level with the body weight evaluation level; and display means for displaying the corrected body composition evaluation level.
