Waist to Hip Ratio
Your health is not only affected by how much body fat you have, but also by where most of the fat is located on your body. Fat that accumulates around our waist is more dangerous than fat around our thighs and hips. A large portion of waist fat is actually on the inside of our bodies around our vital organs. This type of fat is associated with diabetes, coronary heart disease and high blood pressure, especially if you’re overweight.
