Waistline, Weight & Health

Overweight & Waistline
Does your extra body weight sit on your waistline? If your waist is difficult to find, then it could be a sign you are not only overweight but also at a higher risk of coronary heart disease. The fat in our waist is called intra-abdominal fat and we can measure the extent of it by measuring our waist.

Weight Loss Research - Waist Circumference Measurement
Weight loss research has shown that the risk of coronary heart disease for both men and women grows along with their waist circumference.

  • Men have an increased risk if their waist measures 94cm (37 inches) or more.
  • Women have an increased risk if their waist measures 80cm (32 inches) or more.

Weight Loss Studies - Waistlines Measured
Weight loss studies in America were carried out, where researchers measured a lot of waistlines (about 51,000), and matched the results up to other known risk factors for coronary heart disease. They found the waist measurement was a very reliable indicator - with the advantage that it was quick and easy to do, compared to checks such as weighing, checking blood pressure and measuring cholesterol.
