Fat Mass

Fat mass refers to the total amount of fat tissue in your body, including both stored fat (adipose tissue) and essential fat necessary for bodily functions. It is one component of your overall body composition, which also includes muscle, bone, water, and other tissues. Measuring fat mass helps assess health and fitness levels, as too much or too little fat can impact well-being. Unlike weight, which includes everything from muscles to bones, fat mass specifically indicates the quantity of fat tissue present in your body.
