Healthy result:
A Waist to Height ratio (WtHR) of 0.4 - 0.49 is
considered to be within the healthy range. Maintaining your waist
circumference around this range is likely to reduce the risk of
obesity-related health issues. A good tip to remember is to aim to
keep your waist circumference to less than half your height!
