Influence of Waist-to-Hip Ratio on Health and Fertility in Humans
Ancel Keys gave the formula devised in the 1840's a new name, Waist to Hip Ratio (WHR) in the early 70’s. Since then it has become an important parameter for measurement of health. The Waist-to-Hip Ratio (WHR) gives more meaningful information rather than Body Mass Index (BMI). Here we have described the applications of WHR in prediction of certain diseases due to change in WHR values. If both males and females do not maintain proper WHR values, they suffer with many health problems.
