Latest study published in journal of internal medicine give importance for waist circumference over the traditional BMI for cardiovascular risks.But we all know the adipose tissue in the visceral fat is more important risk factor for cardiovascular events than parietal fat and its considered as an endocrine organ by itself. We are seeing so many lean patients having cardiovascular events.
So both the waist wasting or ideal BMI should be abandoned in predicting the risk of heart attacks. Do you agree?
