A standing type bioimpedance measurement method is provided, in which a subject uses two of the four limbs to contact a first electrode set and a second electrode set, respectively, in a standing posture; and then a measurement current is input to one of the first and second electrode sets while another one of the first and second electrode sets receives the measurement current, so that multiple measurement modes, including single hand versus single leg, single hand verse single hand, single leg verse single leg, and multiple limb combinations can be derived. After the measurement is completed, electrical impedance and electrical capacitive reactance of the measured parts are calculated. Finally, an electrical impedance spectrum analysis is applied to acquire a phase angle. The subject may determine the physiological condition based on the measurement result. Such a process can be carried out by oneself without assistance of other persons, so that the purposes of improving use convenience and practicality can
