Read More »Assessing Your Weight and Health Risk Assessment of weight and health risk involves using three key measures: Body mass index (BMI) Waist circumference Risk factors for diseases and conditions associated with obesity Body Mass Index (BMI) BMI is a useful measure of overweight and obesity. It is calculated from your height and weight. BMI is an estimate of body fat and a good gauge of your risk for diseases that can occur with more body fat. The higher your BMI, the higher your risk for certain diseases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, gallstones, breathing problems, and certain cancers. Although BMI can be used for most men and women, it does have some limits: It may overestimate body fat in athletes and others who have a muscular build. It may underestimate body fat in older persons and others who have lost muscle. Use the BMI Calculator or BMI Tables to estimate your body fat. The BMI score means the following: BMI Underweight Below 18.5 Normal 18.5–24.9 Overweight 25.0–29.9 Obesity 30.0 and Above Waist Circumference Measuring waist circumference helps screen for possible health risks that come with overweight and obesity. If most of your fat is around your waist rather than at your hips, you’re at a higher risk for heart disease and type 2 diabetes. This risk goes up with a waist size that is greater than 35 inches for women or greater than 40 inches for men. To correctly measure your waist, stand and place a tape measure around your middle, just above your hipbones. Measure your waist just after you breathe out. The table Risks of Obesity-Associated Diseases by BMI and Waist Circumference provides you with an idea of whether your BMI combined with your waist circumference increases your risk for developing obesity-associated diseases or conditions. Risk Factors for Health Topics Associated With Obesity Along with being overweight or obese, the following conditions will put you at greater risk for heart disease and other conditions: Risk Factors High blood pressure (hypertension)

I took a scoop at 5pm, bad idea. Immediately felt jittery and crazy high energy, felt like going for a run, decided to instead do an exam for my uni as it's due tomorrow. I was able to cram and complete my exam in a few hours with no breaks. After completing exam, felt soo wired and was having crazy, running thoughts. Very unpleasant feeling, and despite completing some work, still regretted taking the amount i did. It also made me feel simultaneously hungry but unable to tolerate food, which was also unpleasant. I wasn't able to try and sleep until 2am it seems to have a nootropic effect, providing energy and mental focus, but they claim it won't give you jitters, which is completely false. They need to have a warning for those with mental health issues or anxiety to proceed with caution.. I won't be taking a whole scoop again. i'll try a quarter scoop another day. But just wanted to warn people with any issues regarding anxiety, mania, and depersonalisation/derealisation to steer clear.
