Abstract
Provided is a moisture meter that can easily measure a moisture content of a subject and can be effectively used as means for assisting the subject in appropriately regulating the moisture content. A moisture meter for measuring a moisture content of a subject includes: a moisture measuring unit that is held in an armpit of a subject so as to measure a moisture content of the subject, the moisture measuring unit including measurement current supply electrode portions and voltage measurement electrode portions that make contact with a skin surface of the armpit; and a temperature measuring unit that is held in the armpit of the subject so as to measure the temperature of the subject.

7. A moisture meter for measuring a moisture content of a subject, comprising:
-
an electrostatic capacitance-type moisture measuring unit that is held in an armpit of the subject to measure a moisture content in the armpit in order to measure the moisture content of the subject, wherein the moisture measuring unit detects an electrostatic capacitance using a plurality of electrodes to measure the moisture content based on a variation in permittivity that changes with a moisture content ratio. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
