One 2021 study showed that people who carry more of their weight around their midsection (an apple-shaped body) may be at a higher risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and premature death than people who carry more of their weight in their hips and thighs (a pear-shaped body).
Even if your BMI is within a moderate range, your risk of disease may be increased.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), a moderate WHR is:
0.9 or less in men
0.85 or less for women
In both men and women, a WHR of 1.0 or higher increases the risk of heart disease and other conditions that are linked to having overweight
