Calculate Your Waist-to-hip Ratio |
|
| |
-Result of the calculation is to get the Waist-to-hip Ratio (WHR).
-Waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) is an indicator used to assess your risks of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension and other health conditions.
-People with a lot of abdominal fat look more like an “apple” and are thus at increased risks of chronic diseases.
-People with larger hip circumference look more like a “pear” and have lower risks of chronic diseases.
Tips for accurate measurements
• Stand relaxed. Measure you waist at its narrowest point between the lower rib and the top of the hip bone or at the midpoint in between. Do not suck in your belly.
• If you can’t find the narrowest point (it may be difficult if you’re overweight), measure just above the belly button.
• Measure you hip at the widest part of your buttocks as viewed from the side.
