Abstract
Disclosed is an apparatus for measuring visceral fat, comprising an input unit, a bioelectrical impedance measuring unit, a blood pressure measuring unit, and an arithmetic unit. The input unit enters body information regarding a body of a person to be measured. The bioelectrical impedance measuring unit measures the bioelectrical impedance of the person. The blood pressure measuring unit measures the blood pressure of the person. The arithmetic unit calculates the visceral fat value of the person, based on the entered body information, the measured bioelectrical impedance and the measured blood pressure.
