BMI: 30.86

Grade I obesity | Val. ref. 30- 35

Body Mass Index (BMI)

The BMI is the reference indicator for obesity screening and epidemiological studies. It is useful to underline that the BMI classifies weight in relation to height, but it is not able to evaluate the real body composition (lean mass VS fat mass), just as it does not allow to know the distribution of body fat in the individual and the identification of risk factors connected with the accumulation of abdominal-visceral fat.

BMI classification criteria

Severe underweight (BMI less than 16)

In conditions of severe underweight, even the tissues, such as muscles, organs, heart and nervous system can be affected, with harmful consequences, especially in the long term. In these cases, it is advisable to consult a doctor.

Underweight (BMI between 16 and 18.4)

Being underweight can mean that you are not eating enough or that there are some hidden medical conditions. If you are underweight, it is always advisable to contact a doctor for further evaluation.

Normal weight (BMI between 18.5 and 24.9)

The scientific medical community recommends keeping the weight within these values.

Overweight (BMI between 25 and 29.9)

People who fall into this category may be at risk of developing obesity.
There could also be a risk of developing further health problems or pre-existing problems which could get worse over time. In overweight conditions, in fact, there is the risk of developing problems such as hypertension or high levels of cholesterol in the blood.
If you are overweight, it is advisable to change your lifestyle and adopt a healthy diet.

First degree obesity (BMI between 30 and 34.9)

People with a BMI of 30 or more may suffer from obesity.
Healthcare organizations have recognized obesity as a manageable chronic disease through the use of a multidisciplinary approach aimed at reducing body fat.
The increase in BMI (greater than or equal to 30) is associated with the increase of various clinical conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, osteoarthritis and various types of cancer.
BMI has no diagnostic value for obesity but can be used for monitoring health risks.
For people with a BMI of 30 or more, it is highly recommended to consult a doctor who specializes in the treatment of obesity.

Second and third degree obesity (BMI greater than 35)

In case of obesity of II° (between 35 and 39.9) and III° (over 40) it is recommended to contact a doctor expert in the treatment and management of obesity.
There are, in fact, several scientifically proven treatments for the management of obesity. Each treatment depends on the specific needs of each individual, the state of health and the presence of complications associated with excess weight.

% Fat: 18.5

Normal | 15 - 19.99 %

% Fat

The assessment of body composition is essential to better understand the health conditions of the individual in nutritional terms and to monitor the progress of any nutritional therapies.
Body composition analysis models can be 4-compartment (fat tissue + water + bone + protein mass and mineral mass) or 2-compartment (fat mass + lean mass).

Males	Females	Reference Values
Less than 10%	Less than 20%	Insufficient
Between 10 and 15%	Between 20 and 25%	Sufficient
Between 15 and 20%	Between 25 and 30%	Normal
Between 20 and 25%	Between 30 and 35%	Acceptable
Between 25 and 30%	Between 35 and 40%	High
Greater than 30%	Above 40%	Very high

Waist circumference (cm): 80

Low | < 94 cm

Cardiovascular risk

Waist circumference is a parameter for assessing cardiovascular risk and is also one of the diagnostic criteria for metabolic syndrome (MS). In fact, the mere detection of waist circumference (greater than 102 cm in men; and greater than 88 cm in women), is included as a criterion, together with other metabolic parameters, for being able to diagnose MS.

Males	Females	Reference Values
<94cm	<80cm	Low
94-102cm	80-88cm	Moderate
102-120cm	88-110cm	High
>120cm	>110cm	Very high

Score: 0

Low risk | Tra 0 e 2

Risk of metabolic syndrome

The Metabolic Syndrome (MS) is a pathological condition resulting from the concomitance of some dysmetabolic and cardiovascular risk factors which include:

Excess body fat with prevalent abdominal distribution;
Elevated levels of LDL cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood;
Low levels of HDL cholesterol;
Arterial hypertension;
Hyperglycemia.

Waist hip ratio: 0.89

Balanced | between 0.85 and 0.89

Fat distribution (waist/hip ratio WHR)

Hip circumference has an inverse correlation with diabetes and coronary heart disease.

In fact, the increase in muscle mass and subcutaneous fat in the gluteal-femoral part of the body decreases the accumulation of visceral fat, i.e. that fat that represents a greater risk of incurring cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.

Males	Females	Reference Values
<0.8	<0.7	Subcutaneous (pear)
0.8-0.85	0.7-0.8	Tenderly subcutaneous
0.85-0.9	0.8-0.85	Balanced
0.9-1.0	0.85-0.95	Tenderly abdominal
>1	>0.95	Abs (apple)

Current weight: 100 Kg

Physiological weight: 95.9 Kg

Physiological weight

We define physiological weight as the weight that includes the percentage of physiological fat (by age group and by gender) and represents the weight that could be reached after losing excess fat, so it often coincides with the desired weight.
The physiological weight calculated without the intervention of the nutritionist is a good reference in most cases, but it is always necessary to consult the average or the nutritionist for better personalization and definition of the target weight.

	Males	Females
Age	% physiological fat
18-25	Between 10 and 15%	Between 20 and 25%
26-50	Between 15 and 20%	Between 25 and 30%
51-65	Between 15 and 20%	Between 25 and 30%
>65	Between 20 and 25%	Between 30 and 35%

Abdominal volume: 0.0 L

Low risk | less than or equal to 2 litres

Excess abdominal volume

The excess abdominal volume, through our algorithm, allows to quantify and monitor the excess abdominal volume (expressed in litres), compared to normal conditions and, therefore, low risk of cardio-metabolic and inflammatory complications.< br> This index gives a clear volumetric reference useful for grading and sizing excess abdominal adiposity and its level of risk.

Valori	Reference Values
Between 0 and 2 litres	Low
Between 2 and 5 litres	Moderate
Between 5 and 8 litres	High
Greater than 8 litres	Very high
