Here’s your heart health snapshot, based on what you’ve shared.

Waist Circumference

Waist Circumference cut-offs
Women: ≥ 80 cm increased risk
Women: ≥ 88 cm high risk
Men: ≥ 94 cm increased risk
Men: ≥ 102 cm high risk
These thresholds are used in UK and international guidance to flag central obesity and elevated cardiometabolic risk.

Why does Waist Circumference matter?

Waist circumference reflects the amount of abdominal fat, especially visceral fat, which is strongly linked to higher risks of heart disease, diabetes, and metabolic disorders.

Waist-to-Hip Ratio

WHO cut-offs
Women: > 0.85 higher risk
Men: ≥ 1.0 higher risk
These thresholds are used internationally in obesity and cardiometabolic risk assessment.

Why does Waist-to-Hip Ratio matter?

Waist-to-hip ratio compares waist measurement to hip measurement. Higher ratios can mean you have more fat around your waist. This can lead to a higher risk for heart disease or diabetes.

Waist-to-Height Ratio

NHS / NICE guidance
Simple ruleWHtR < 0.50(waist < half your height)
Categories (adults)0.40–0.49 → Healthy0.50–0.59 → Increased risk≥ 0.60 → High risk
These cut-offs are used in UK guidance and supported by systematic reviews for cardiometabolic risk screening.

Why does Waist-to-Height Ratio matter?

A high ratio indicates central or abdominal obesity, which is a strong predictor of serious health issues like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, and stroke.

Nutrition

82%
WHO Guidelines
Fruit & Veg
≥ 5 portions/day (~400 g), excluding starchy roots
Processed / UPF
Reduce intake; prioritise minimally processed foods
Sugary Drinks / Free sugars
< 10% energy (~50 g/day ≈10 tsp); ideally < 5% (~25 g/day ≈6 tsp)
These WHO recommendations support better long-term heart, metabolic, and overall health.
