ABOUT WEIGHT NORMAL WEIGHT Simply Height in cms – 100 For a man 165 cm height = 165 -100 = 65 kg IDEAL WEIGHT [ HEIGHT (in meters) x HEIGHT (in meters) ] x 25 [ 1.65 m x 1.65 m ] x 25 = 2.7225 x 25 = 68 kg EXCESS WEIGHT = [OUR WEIGHT – IDEAL WEIGHT] 75 kg man – 68 kg ideal weight = 7 kg excess GOAL WEIGHT Always try to have realistic goals (Ads, Crash diets) Only 10% of weight reduction in 6 months For 75 kg man - 10% = 7.5 kg reduction in 6 months Dr.Sarma@works
OVER WEIGHT - OBESITY EXCESS WEIGHT = [OUR WEIGHT – IDEAL WEIGHT] 75 kg man if 68 kg is ideal weight = 7 kg excess OVER WEIGHT If the excess weight is with in 10% of ideal weight If for a man, the ideal weight is 68 kg (10% = 6.8) Any weight from 68.1 to 74.8 kg is over weight OBESITY If the excess weight is more than 10% of ideal Wt For him weight more than 74.8 is Obesity Dr.Sarma@works
OBESITY BODY WEIGHT IS ONE PARAMETER CENTRAL OBESITY – even if the weight is normal TUMMY – WAIST CIRCUMFERENCE Normal for men < 38 inches, Normal for women < 32 inches Waist – HIP RATIO ( Waist measurement ÷ Hip measurement ) x 100 Normal for men < 90 %, Normal for women < 80 % Dr.Sarma@works

BLOOD PRESSURE • In B.P reading there are two numbers • The TOP number is called Systolic B.P • It measures the pressure in the blood pipes when heart pumps – It is normally 120 mm • The LOWER number is called the Diastolic B.P • It measures the pressure in the blood pipes when heart rests – It is normally 80 mm • It is written as 120/80, 134/ 86 like that.. • Top number should not exceed 140 • Lower number should not exceed 90 Dr.Sarma@works

BLOOD CIRCULATION Dr.Sarma@works
What If I have High B.P. • Over time High B.P. causes heart to enlarge • Heart’s pumping power becomes less and less • This causes dysfunction and failure of heart pump • Blood vessels harden and get narrowed - leads to ↓blood flow to organs like heart, kidney - • Results in heart attacks and kidney failure • Blood clots and bleeding from brain blood pipes leads to paralytic stroke etc., • If eye blood vessels are affected – loss of vision • Diabetes + High B.P = Fire + Wind - ↑damage Dr.Sarma@works
