PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To measure subcutaneous fat and visceral fat easily worn in a simple constitution without directly passing an electric current to the body in the body fat measuring apparatus. SOLUTION: This body fat measuring apparatus 1 is provided with a plurality of insulating electrodes 21, a capacitance measuring means 23 impressing a voltage between one insulating electrode 21 and another insulating electrode 21 out of the insulating electrodes 21 and measuring the static capacitance between the respective electrodes, a computing part 32 calculating the body fat volume based on the measured capacitance, a display portion 4 displaying the calculated result. The insulating electrode 21 is disposed and used in a state insulated from the skin surface of a human body, or a part M to be measured. The capacitance measuring means 23 measures the static capacitance based on the oscillating frequency of an oscillating circuit 2 including the capacitance determined by the body tissue components between the insulating electrodes 21 in its circuit.
