The TLBC (WHR) waist-to-hip ratio calculator measures the ratio of the circumference of the waist to that of the hips. Your waist-to-hip ratio tells you if you’re pear-shaped, apple-shaped or squash-shaped. Did you know that a Cambridge University study says that the size of your waist in relation to the size of your hips can help determine your risk for heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and other conditions?
In general, the higher your waist-hip ratio is, the higher your health risks may be, regardless of how tall or big-boned you are. Find out if you are at risk.
