PORTUGUÊS
O perímetro abdominal é um indicador que permite-nos ter mais informação sobre a distribuição da gordura corporal.
Um elevado índice de gordura abdominal é sinal de grande risco de contracção de doenças como a diabetes, doenças cardiovasculares ou pressão sanguínea elevada.
Os valores do nível de risco variam de homem para mulher, considerando-se:
O risco elevado para os homens quando igual ou superior a 94 cm e muito elevado se igual ou superior a 102 cm
O risco elevado para as senhoras quando igual ou superior a 80 cm e muito elevado se igual ou superior a 88 cm
Podes verificar o teu perímetro medindo, com uma fita métrica, a cintura entre a zona da tua última costela e a zona da cintura. O valor dir-te-á como estás a nível de perímetro abdominal.
Todavia, se sentires que não tens a qualidade de vida que gostarías de ter, procura um profissional e aconselha-te - Nutricionista, Personal Trainer, Instrutor, Médico de Família, entre outros.
