الأسئلة الشائعة
What is a healthy waist-to-hip ratio?
For women, a WHR below 0.80 is considered low risk. For men, below 0.95 is low risk. Higher values indicate greater abdominal fat and increased health risk.
How do I measure my waist and hips?
Measure your waist at the narrowest point, usually just above the navel. Measure hips at the widest point of the buttocks.
Is WHR better than BMI?
WHR accounts for fat distribution, while BMI only considers total weight. WHR is a better predictor of cardiovascular risk because abdominal fat is more dangerous.
