People often say "size" refers to the number of centimeters in a person's body, which generally affects the length of clothes, pants and sleeves. The "shape" that people often say refers to the number of centimeters around a person's body, which generally affects the waist circumference and hip circumference. People can use the same size for clothes and trousers, but they can't use the same "type" at the same time.
The method of measuring waist circumference is to stand while measuring, then stand with feet 25 to 30 cm apart, and then measure the length horizontally from navel with a soft ruler. In fact, people should pay more attention to waist circumference, not weight. If the waistline is large, it not only looks unsightly, but also may have health hazards.
Excessive waist circumference indicates an increase in visceral fat. Excessive visceral fat is medically called abdominal obesity, central obesity and apple obesity.
So the thick waistline has a lot of harm. The greater the waist circumference, the greater the risk of hypertension. The waist circumference between 20 and 30 years old is thicker, and the incidence of hypertension is higher than the normal waist circumference of the same age 1 times; Between 40 and 50 years old, the waist circumference is thick, and the incidence of hypertension is 50% higher than that of normal waist circumference of the same age group.
If the waist circumference is too thick, hyperlipidemia is more likely to occur. Studies have shown that the risk of abdominal obesity is several times higher than that of ordinary people suffering from hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia. Moreover, there are often abnormal increases in low-density lipoprotein and very low-density lipoprotein, while high-density lipoprotein, which should be high, decreases.
A thick waist circumference may also lead to diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes. The prevalence of diabetes in men with thick waistlines can be as high as four times that of men with normal waistlines. On the other hand, 80% of patients with type 2 diabetes are overweight. And the longer the time exceeds the standard, the greater the chance of developing diabetes.
