The percentage of water varies according to your age and gender. Here's a look at how much water is inside you. Answer: The amount of water in the human body ranges from 50-75%. The average adult human body is 50-65% water, averaging around 57-60%. The percentage of water in infants is much higher, typically around 75-78% water, dropping to 65% by one year of age. Body composition varies according to gender and fitness level, because fatty tissue contains less water than lean tissue. The average adult male is about 60% water.
Ideal Total Body Water Percentages. Different tissues in your body contain different amounts of water. For example, body fat contains approximately 10 percent water, while muscle is approximately 75 percent water. In general, men should have a total body water percentage between 50 and 65 percent, while the ideal range for women is between 45 and 60 percent. Using a body fat scale is one of the only ways you can estimate your total body water percentage at home.
