Top Discuss this Ask an gold expert Print Question(s): Written by: Fabio Piccini, doctor and Jungian psychotherapist, in charge of the "Centre for Eating Disorders gold Therapy" at "Malatesta Novello" nursing home in Cesena. Works privately in Rimini and Chiavari. E-mail: version: 23 Dec 2002. Latest revision: How much fat do I gold have in my body? Answer: To measure a person's fat level the body can be imagined schematically as divided into two components: lean body mass and fat body mass. The relative proportion between these two parts can be measured with diagnostic techniques that define the lean and fat body mass percentage. The methods more commonly used, for this purpose, are Plicometry and Densiometry. Plicometry is based on the principle that there is a direct relation between the subcutaneous adipose tissue and thin body mass so measuring the depth of some folds in the skin, made with a kind of slide rule, it is possible to know the fat mass and then the remainder is the lean body mass.
