Total Body Water

In this video, I explain what total body water content is. I also discuss how total body water is distributed among the ECF and ICF.

Textbook: Boron and Boulpaep "Medical Physiology", 3rd Edition, "Chapter 5: Transport of Solutes and Water", Section Title: "Total-body water is the sum of the ICF and ECF volumes", Chapter Author: Peter S. Aronson, Walter F. Boron, and Emile L. Boulpaep, pg. 102-103.

Since our understanding of physiology is constantly updating, please use your professor's lectures and/or your textbook as your primary sources of information since these are more likely to be up to date. Thank you!

This is different from what we were taught...ICF is 40% of body weight and ECF is 20% of body weight
