Adipose tissue content in mature women with various constitution

The adipose tissue content was determined by bioelectrical impedance analysis in mature women of different age groups with leptosomal, mesosomal and megalosomal constitution, somatotyped by method of I. Galant - B. Nikitjuk - V. Chtecov. The minimal absolute and relative value of the adipose content was registered in asthenical and stenoplastical somatotypes of all female age groups and women with picknical and euriplastical somatotypes had the maxmal numbers of this indicator. It was found the adipose body component increased in old age group. The study showed individual variability of adipose tissue content in all age female groups for every somatotype.
