Waist-to-Height Ratio Calculator evaluates body fat distribution and health risks by comparing waist circumference to height measurements.
What is Waist-to-Height Ratio?
The Waist-to-Height Ratio (WHtR) measures the distribution of abdominal fat relative to overall height, providing a simple indicator of health risks.
WHtR Calculation Formula
WHtR = Waist Circumference (cm) ÷ Height (cm)
Ideal ratio is 0.5 or less for both men and women.
WHtR Categories and Health Risks
| WHtR Range | Category | Health Risk |
|---|---|---|
| < 0.40 | Very Low | Lowest risk |
| 0.40-0.50 | Healthy | Low risk |
| 0.50-0.60 | Moderate Risk | Increased risk |
| > 0.60 | High Risk | Significantly increased risk |

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is WHtR better than BMI?
WHtR is more accurate for assessing abdominal fat and health risks, as it considers both height and waist measurements rather than just weight.
What is a healthy WHtR?
A WHtR of 0.5 or less is considered healthy for both men and women, indicating low risk of obesity-related health problems.
How often should I measure WHtR?
Measure WHtR every 3-6 months as part of routine health monitoring, or when significant weight changes occur.
