Waist-to-Hip Ratio Calculator
Calculate your waist-to-hip ratio to assess your body fat distribution and health risks. This simple measurement helps understand your risk for heart disease and other conditions.
Why Waist-to-Hip Ratio Matters
The waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) is a quick measure of how fat is distributed on your body. A higher ratio may mean more abdominal fat, which can increase risk of heart disease, diabetes, and other health issues.
Generally, healthy WHR values are:
- Women: Less than 0.85
- Men: Less than 0.90
Values above these thresholds may warrant a checkup with your healthcare provider.
