What is the most accurate type of body fat analysis?
Total Body Electrical Conductivity is the most accurate way to measure body fat. This method is based on lean tissue being a better conductor of electricity than fat. A person lies in a cylinder that generates a very weak electromagnetic field. Although very accurate, its use is limited due to the high cost of the equipment.
