Detailed Health Analysis
Waist-to-Height Ratio Formula
Ratio = Waist Circumference ÷ Height
The waist-to-height ratio is calculated by dividing your waist measurement by your height (both in the same units). This simple measure is a strong predictor of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and other health risks associated with abdominal obesity.
Note: For accurate measurement, measure your waist at the midpoint between the bottom of your ribs and the top of your hip bones.
