Understanding Body Roundness Index: An Alternative to BMI
What is Body Roundness Index?
Body roundness index, or BRI, is a novel approach to evaluating health risks that takes into account body shape rather than solely relying on traditional measures like BMI.
Why BRI Matters
- Considers shape rather than just weight: BRI can offer more insight into health status.
- Comprehensive risk assessment: It provides a broader view of potential health issues.
How is BRI Calculated?
- Measure circumference of the waist.
- Assess other body dimensions.
