Waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) compares the circumference of the waist to the hips. High WHR indicates central (abdominal/visceral) obesity, which is more strongly associated with cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome than peripheral fat.
Guia passo a passo

- 2Measure waist at narrowest point (navel level)
- 3Measure hips at widest point of buttocks
- 4WHO thresholds: men > 0.90 = high risk; women > 0.85 = high risk
