KEEP YOUR WAIST UNDER COMPULSORY ONE METER

For people with waist size of more than one meter there is increased risk of occurrence of heart disease, diabetes and other complications associated with obesity. According to British experts waist circumference may actually be more important unit of measurement of health than body mass index for determining the overall obesity. Obesity in the abdomen is more dangerous than in other areas of parts of the body (such as thighs and legs). The type of fat and place their accumulation are more defining than their quantity. For example, fat located under the skin and causing cellulite, relatively not dangerous. But fat located deep in the abdomen and make a wide circumference, contain many toxins, increased level of cholesterol and, increase the body's resistance to insulin prevent controlling the blood sugar. Improved resistance to insulin in practice means that the pancreas problems was forced to produce a greater quantity of it, and it may harm other organs - such as kidney. This problem is more widely among men. The typical male figure has a form as an apple, the abdomen often "go out" from pants. The female body, is most often in the form as a pear - with greater weight in the thighs and legs. The form of apple is more healthy than a pear shape, but rather mostly women over the years increased the size of his waist and turned apple in pear, researchers say. They are categorical that the critical point is the waist size of 1 metre, but the best prevention of resistance to insulin is to pay more attention to the first signs of increasing weight, which quickly affect the function of the heart, liver, kidneys and other vital organs.
