All this publicity about the Lancet Commission this morning is so out of date! NICE report 2022 recommended waist to height ratio instead of BMI. I first suggested ditching BMI and replacing it with waist to height ratio in 1996! ashwell.uk.com

This NICE Report includes the new definition of central adiposity - the waist to height ratio. Published in 2022 and reiterated here. Originally suggested by me in 1996!!

This has taken 4 years to produce and taken hours by NICE staff and the committee members. Shame it has had so little publicity. Includes suggestion that harmful central adiposity is best measured with waist to height ratio. Another nail in the coffin of BMI!
