About Waist-to-Height Ratio

The waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) is a simple measurement that assesses health risks associated with central obesity. It’s considered by many health experts to be a better indicator of health risks than BMI alone.

Why It Matters

A higher waist-to-height ratio indicates more abdominal fat, which is linked to increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, and other health conditions.

How to Measure

Measure your waist at the midpoint between the bottom of your ribs and the top of your hips. Measure height without shoes.
