Consider action:
A Waist to Height ratio (WtHR) 0.5 - 0.59 is considered
above the healthy range and could place you at an increased risk of
developing cardiovascular risk factors such as high
blood pressure and high
cholesterol. It is recommended that you consider action by taking
steps to find sustainable ways to manage your weight, such as by
speaking to your doctor.
