    Because the larger the waist circumference, it means that there is a lot of fat on the belly, so there will be pressure on the internal organs.

    Because we can see from a person's waist circumference that the person's living habits and whether they are self-disciplined, people who often stay up late, are sedentary, and have an unhealthy and irregular diet are very easy to become bucket waists.

    Large waist circumference and a lot of fat accumulation in the abdomen can easily lead to a lot of fat in the abdominal cavity, such as fatty liver, and poor physical health.

    I've never heard of that. A thick waist may be too fatIt may also be that the skeleton itself is relatively large, and the waist is relatively thick.

    There is no direct relationship between waist thickness and longevity. I think these statements are more like folklore. Not only is it, it's also superstitious.

    I think people who try it a little bit should know that there is no connection between the two. If the waist is thick and the life is short, is the waist thin enough and the life is longer?

    For example, the superstition about the palm of the hand in the past. In the past, people thought that a woman with a broken palm was bad luck and unlucky. Although some activities such as palm prints and palmistry are still very popular, who can say that a woman with a broken palm is not lucky.

    Not to mention that the palm prints will change according to the internal situation of the body, so is it still correct to look at palmistry this way? Can it still be said that these palmists determine the fate of a person?

    Just as palm prints change, some people's waistlines will change as well. For example, someone has succeeded in making his waist thinner. Some people get fatter and their waists are thicker.

    There are also people who are sick, sometimes they get a little fatter and sometimes they get a little fatter, how to explain this. If this statement is correct, I think there should be many people who choose to go to ** or thin waist to ensure that they live long enough, but in fact, there are those with thick waists who live long, and those with thin waists who do not live long.

    There is no scientific basis for the statement that the thicker the waist, the shorter the life. In real life, we need to distinguish between these unfounded rumors. The so-called rumors stop at the wise.

    This kind of unrealistic rumor requires everyone to be vigilant and not blindly superstitious. Especially this kind of rumor that will follow the trend and be sought after, if it is not stopped in time, will there be a lot of training courses for slimming waist to live a long life?

    Not necessarily, some people are born with a thick waist and can only rely on **, which has nothing to do with longevity, this statement is not necessarily true.

    I think there is some truth in this statement, there is more fat in the waist and abdomen, and it may also be visceral fat, the harm of visceral fat is very great, and it is really not good-looking to be fat.

  9. Anonymous users2024-02-07

    In fact, there is a certain scientific basis for this, or there are a lot of internal organs stored, and if it is particularly hypertrophied here, there must be lesions.

    We all know that obesity is not good for the body, but compared with obesity that is uniform throughout the body, waist fat is more lethal to health. We saidWaist fat is medically called abdominal obesity, also known as visceral obesityThis is because it not only allows fat to accumulate under the belly, but also affects the liver, pancreas, gastrointestinal tract and other parts of the stomach.

    If a person is too fat, it will be a bit difficult to walk, let aloneThe internal organs are too fat, the bearing capacity is too great, and it will be difficult to function. If it accidentally affects some important blood vessels such as the heart, liver, and kidneys, then it is easy to get high blood pressure, fatty liver, hyperlipidemia and other diseases. And once these diseases come to the door, it is a bit difficult to live a long life if you want to be healthy and healthy.

    Therefore, obesity has a direct relationship with our health, which is why don't let yourself be too fat.

    Swedish medical experts found in a follow-up investigation: 29% of men around the age of 55 are thinner and have a thick waistline, and they will not live to be 70 years old; On the contrary, 95% of those who are fatter and have a thinner waist circumference live to be over 70 years old.

    A large-scale medical survey of more than 350,000 people by European researchers has found: People with large waistlines have up to twice the risk of premature death.

    Researchers from Harvard University, Boston Hospital and other institutions in the United States analyzed and foundWomen with a waist circumference of more than 89 cm had a 79% higher risk of early death than women with a waist circumference of less than 71 cm.

    According to the research of the above countriesWe can know that the thicker the waist, the shorter the life, there is still a certain scientific basis, not a rumor. So, in order to live longer, don't make yourself too fat, and pay attention to exercise.

    Well, that's right. If you think about it, if you are fat, it will lead to fat inside, which will hinder the normal operation of various systems in the body, so that day after day will inevitably bring many unhealthy factors, and it is very likely that your life span will be shortened. The standard of waist circumference is roughly to have a flat abdomen and a waist, of course, we can't compare ourselves with those models, celebrities and well-known fitness trainers, who eat by their bodies and think about how to lose weight every day.

    That standard is their "necessity", and it is not worth blindly comparing. So, how is the waist circumference standard calculated in detail? <>

    Various algorithms for waist circumference

    When calculating the standard waist circumference, we should try to take into account all factors. Therefore, the international general formula is: when one's own weight height x height = 19 24, it is regarded as a healthy waist circumference.

    In fact, I have a folkloric algorithm (only for women) - those who are under 170 in height should not weigh more than 50 kilograms, and such women generally have a qualified waist circumference.

    There is also an algorithm that is not so official, but it is also tested correctly. That is, the waist circumference divided by the height should not be exceeded, once this threshold is exceeded, it can be regarded as too thick waist circumference. This algorithm is also relatively popular and has high authority.

    The third, more intuitive and quicker way to do this is to compare the values directly. If the waist circumference of a boy does not exceed 92 cm and the waist circumference of a woman does not exceed 86 cm, it is considered to be a qualified waist circumference. So how do we avoid the nightmare of an overly thick waistline? <>

    The assembling of waist slimming moves is effective in personal testing

    While being active in fitness, you should also pay attention to your diet. If you refer to the calculation method and suddenly find that your waist circumference is over the standard, it is time to go to the gym. Buying a fitness card and exercising after work is a good trick and a different way of leisure.

    In addition, you should also pay attention to the daily sugar intake, and don't be greedy for sweetness and ruin your figure.

    Regulate the eating situation, practice three points and eat seven points. In addition to controlling sugars. It's not wise for us not to overeat or drink after a workout, as this will be undone.

    Also eat more vegetables, less meat, more meat, more white meat, and less red meat. What is White Meat, Red Meat? Pork is red meat, and chicken and fish are white meat.

    In fact, healthy living is simple. Warm your personality, broaden your horizons, and most importantly, be healthy. And if there are certain problems in the human body that will hinder the extension of life, then there must be a thick waist in these problems.

    Therefore, everyone must pay attention to their waistline, arrange their lives reasonably, and enjoy a healthy life.

    A thick waist indicates that the visceral fat is already too high. If visceral fat is too high, it will increase the burden of visceral metabolism and increase the probability of disease.

    Scientific studies have shown that if the waist circumference is less than 55 for men and less than 50 for women, it is normal.

    There is a certain scientific basis for this statement, because if the abdomen is fat, the liver, gastrointestinal tract, etc. in the stomach will also accumulate fat, which is not good for physical health. A waist circumference of 95 for men and 85 for women is considered healthy.

    It has been scientifically proven that the average life expectancy of women is longer than that of men. There are also studies that show that if a man's waist circumference is too large or too thick, it will also lead to a decrease in life expectancy.

    According to the British "Daily Mail", a thick waist circumference will shorten life expectancy, both men and women. Studies have found that people with a thick waist circumference have an increased risk of death from heart disease and cancer after excluding factors such as smoking, alcohol and exercise.

    In recent years, researchers from the American Cancer Society have followed the health status of more than 100,000 people from 1997 to 2006, including 10,000 men and 10,000 women, all over the age of 50. It was found that people with a thick waist circumference were more likely to die from illness in both men and women, regardless of weight.

    Researchers from Harvard University, Boston Hospital and other institutions in the United States have found that women with a waist circumference of more than 89 cm have a 79% higher risk of early death than women with a waist circumference of less than 71 cm.

    Bask in the sun

    In Europe, sunbathing is the best way to live a long life, and sun exposure can replenish calcium to the body and avoid osteoporosis in later life.

    Read more books

    Reading books can be calm, have a good attitude, and can achieve static health and delay aging. Especially men, because men have a lot of male hormones, they are easily impulsive and aggressive, and choosing to see more can alleviate the aggressiveness.

    Summary. A good attitude, good popularity, good exercise, and good sleep are also good ways to maintain longevity.

    Although there is no scientific basis for the saying that the thicker the waist, the shorter the life, it is not completely unreasonable。Waist obesity can indeed cause many diseases. Waist obesity is more harmful than total body obesity, what we see is that the waist is very fat, and we can see a bunch of fat.

    But in fact, there are many fats that we can't see, such as liver, which may also accumulate fat.

    Everyone also knows that fat people have a hard time walking. One of my aunts, she should be more than 200 pounds now, she is really fat. I usually start to gasp after walking a few steps, let alone climbing the stairs.

    Now it has been found that there are three highs, and those with high sugar content cannot be eaten, and high-fat foods such as animal offal cannot be eaten. It's really a bunch of delicious things that can't be eaten, and you even need to take medicine to control the three highs.

    The abdomen is different from the rest of the body, it is a gathering place for the body's vital organs. People with a fat abdomen not only have a lot of fat in their abdomen, but also may have a lot of fat growing in their internal organs. This kind of obesity is double obesity, which means that your body is already very bad and the chance of getting sick is very high.

    The human body is like a machine, if there is too much belly fat, it will affect the normal operation of the machine. If it's just too much fat on the outside of the body, then it's okay, the body is at least a little stressed, and it will still function normally. But if you have more internal fat, your body will have problems functioning.

    It is easy to have cardiovascular problems such as high blood pressure and high blood lipids.

    Therefore, people with obesity at the waist should pay attention。To properly control your diet and exercise more, if you have the opportunity, you can go to a special gym and do a special ** for the waist.

    Men pursue 6-pack abs, women pursue small waist and vest line, but with the improvement of age and living standards, abdominal muscles and small waist are inevitably deformed.

    The increase in waist circumference is not only because of "fat", but also because of the thickening of the waist. And waist circumference is an important indicator to measure the length of a person's life. A thick waist circumference can shorten life expectancy, both men and women. Did you choose the right one?

    After excluding factors such as body mass index (BMI), smoking, alcohol consumption and exercise, people with a moderate waist circumference were at increased risk of dying from heart disease, respiratory disease, and cancer. People with a thick waist circumference are also at greater risk of early death than those with smaller waist circumferences.

    The longer the belt, the shorter the life".

    There is a British proverb that "the longer the belt, the shorter the life", the larger the waist circumference, the greater the risk of hypertension and diabetes, and the risk of hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia is several times higher than that of ordinary people. It is also more likely to develop cerebral atherosclerosis, which can cause dangerous cerebral hemorrhage and even life-threatening. In addition to the thickening of the waistline, the fat in the body such as the heart, liver and other organs has also increased, and the organs have become fat, and the function will be affected, and people's health will naturally be at risk.

    An increase in waist circumference by one inch is likely to exponentially increase the incidence of various chronic diseases. There is also a strong correlation between waist circumference and cancer. According to a recent report from the World Association for Research on Cancer**, every inch of waist circumference increases the risk of cancer by a factor of eight.

    An eight-year study of 150,000 people showed a significant increase in mortality in men and women with body mass inflows above 25 and 27, respectively.
