THE IMPORTANCE OF WAIST TO HEIGHT RATIO
Did you know your waist measurement is one of the most important risk factors to your health? The World Health Organization considers a person’s waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), waist circumference divided by height, a more efficient predictor of mortality than waist circumference or Body Mass Index (BMI).
For women a WHtR of 0.7 correlate strongly with general good health, fertility, with less susceptibility to diseases such as cardiovascular disorders, diabetes, PCOS, and certain cancers. Women with higher waist-to-height ratios have lower pregnancy rates, regardless of their BMI. Men with waist-to-height ratios of 0.9 have been shown to be healthier, more fertile with less prostrate or testicular cancers. More about waist measurement.
Waist-To-Height Raito = waist circumference / height

WHY CHOOSE METABOLIC BALANCE?
Metabolic balance® is not a standardized diet plan, but rather a holistic approach to putting your body’s metabolism into a healthy balance and reaching your ideal body weight.
Insulin, the pancreatic hormone, plays a central role in this process. It “opens the doors” to our body’s cells, allowing blood sugar to enter and supply the body with energy. Being overweight has a strong effect on the delicate balance between blood sugar and insulin levels and is thus the root of many common illnesses and disorders.
Healthy nutrition, as recommended by metabolic balance®, will stabilize your body’s insulin level, maintain the natural feeling of fullness after a meal and balance your body’s metabolism. The cornerstone of metabolic balance® program is a personalized nutritional “road map” based on your body’s bio-chemistry. If you are interested in finding out more about metabolic balance,®.
