腰臀比計算器
您的 WHR 與心血管風險程度
腰臀比計算器
腰臀比(WHR)是腰圍除以臀圍。它反映脂肪分布:WHR 越高,代表腹部脂肪越多,心血管風險越大。WHO 將男性高於 0.90、女性高於 0.85 標記為風險。
如何使用這個腰臀比計算器
先選擇性別,再以公分輸入兩個尺寸:腰圍量在最細處(或依世界衛生組織建議齊肚臍),臀圍量在最寬處。皮尺貼合但不勒緊,腹部自然放鬆。點擊計算,你的WHR會連同低、中、高風險標籤即時顯示,無需註冊。
如何解讀結果
WHR是腰圍除以臀圍,所以沒有單位,只是像0.85這樣的數字。依據世界衛生組織的參考值,男性超過約0.90、女性超過0.85時,心血管與代謝風險上升;低於這些數值,脂肪分布則較為理想。比值偏低是「梨形」身材,偏高則是脂肪集中在腹部的「蘋果形」身材。
數字背後的科學
WHR是內臟脂肪的簡易替代指標,也就是包裹在器官周圍的深層脂肪,它在代謝上遠比臀部或大腿的脂肪活躍。這正是男性0.90、女性0.85這兩個世界衛生組織閾值預警代謝與心血管風險升高的原因。脂肪長在哪裡,而不僅是總量多少,會左右心臟病和2型糖尿病的風險,有時比單看BMI更能預測風險。
侷限與實用建議
一致性至關重要:每次都量同樣的位置,輕輕呼氣,皮尺貼合而非壓陷皮膚。WHR在孕期不適用,應與其他指標並用,而非取而代之。想了解更全面的情況,可試試CaloNote的腰高比計算器,再與體脂率和BMI計算器交叉核對。CaloNote應用會把這些數字與你每天的飲食和習慣連結起來。
常見問題
- What is the waist-to-hip ratio?
- Waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) divides your waist circumference by your hip circumference. It indicates how fat is distributed between the abdomen and hips, and a higher ratio reflects more central fat, which carries greater cardiovascular and metabolic risk.
- How do I measure waist-to-hip ratio?
- Measure your waist at its narrowest point and your hips at their widest, keeping the tape level and snug. Divide waist by hip. Enter both measurements here and the tool returns your WHR with the matching WHO risk category for your sex.
- What waist-to-hip ratio is considered healthy?
- Using WHO thresholds, cardiovascular risk rises above about 0.90 for men and 0.85 for women, with 1.0 or higher considered high risk. Lower ratios suggest a healthier fat distribution, though WHR is one indicator best read alongside others.
