Do you pass the waist ratio test? Forget your weight or BMI, there's a new magic formula scientists say really does reveal how healthy you are
- A new set of guidelines say to keep your waistline less than half of your height
- NICE says a healthy waist-to-height ratio — where you divide your waist measurement by your height measurement — is classed as 0.4 to 0.49
- A ratio of 0.5 to 0.59 puts people at an increased risk of health problems which can include the likes of type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease
- We put 12 individuals to the test to see what the new guidelines say about them
