Dump Your Toxic Waist! by Derrick Cutting
Increased waist circumference means fat inside the abdomen and is strongly linked to risk. The metabolic syndrome comprises: increased waist circumference, unbalanced blood fats, raised blood pressure and insulin resistance. So the risk is, blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, cancers and heart attacks. For a woman, a waist over 32 inches (81.3 cm) means some increased risk; over 35 inches (88.9 cm) risk becomes very significant. The equivalent values for a man are 37 inches (94 cm) and 40 inches (101.6 cm). And anyone who's taller lying down is in real trouble. "Dump your Toxic Waist!" tells readers all they need to know about the science of abdominal fat and the misery it causes. It can be read cover to cover for full information and background knowledge - or it can be dipped into, making use of summary sections on areas or particular interest.
