Lack of body weight, as well as excessweight, adversely affecting human health, can lead to a number of diseases. Excessive harmony often provokes dystrophic changes in the organs and tissues of the whole organism, causing irregularities in its functioning. Excess body weight leads to the development of atherosclerosis of the arteries, which prevents normal blood supply. As a result, may develop ischemia (a decrease in the supply of oxygen to organs and tissues). And already against the background of actively developing atherosclerosis there are such accompanying diseases as stroke, trophic ulcers, myocardial infarction, impotence, diabetes mellitus, low immunity, etc.
Undoubtedly, both the mass deficit and its excess are detrimental to the body. Therefore, you need to constantly monitor your weight so that you can start taking the necessary measures in time to correct it.
Body mass index for men
Many representatives of the stronger sex do not noticesuch a lack as overweight. But it is he, according to the unanimous opinion of doctors and nutritionists, is the cause of various problems. Obese men are more likely to suffer from insulin-dependent diabetes and suffer from infertility. All because between the hormonal background of a person and his weight there is an interdependent relationship. In order not to provoke the emergence of all sorts of troubles, it is necessary to control the body weight independently. Optimal is the weight at which in the human body there are no violations of its functioning. In all people it is different and depends directly on the constitution, height and age.
How to calculate body mass index for men?There are many formulas by which you can determine the ideal weight. However, not all of them are convenient in practical application. Perhaps the easiest and most popular is the body mass index for men in Quetelet. This method has long been taken as a basis by doctors to determine the desired weight of the patient. It is based on the dependence of the growth of a person and his weight. It is very important that in this method a certain weight range is used for calculation, and not one of any value. So, to calculate the body mass index for men, it is necessary to divide its weight by the height in squares. Let us give an example. We calculate this formula for a guy whose height is 1.7 meters (and in square 2, 89), and weight 65 kg. The body mass index for men with such parameters will be equal to 65: 2.89 = 22.4.
The results of calculations can be found as follows:
Nevertheless, BMI is an indicator that can benot always in all cases. People with large muscle mass, children and pregnant women to focus on it is meaningless. To determine the BMI as accurately as possible, you need to know how to properly weigh. This procedure should be done in the morning after waking up, after visiting the toilet. Growth is also recommended to measure after sleep.
Consider what an amniotic index is.This indicator characterizes the level of amniotic fluid in the womb of the mother, in which the future child is. The index is calculated using the ultrasound of the study, or visually. The second method involves careful transverse and longitudinal scanning. If in appearance it seems that the amount of amniotic fluid between the fetus and the abdominal wall is significant, then polyhydramnios are diagnosed. In the event that the given space is less than it is necessary, it is possible to speak about a lack of water.
When calculating the index of amniotic fluid, it is necessarydivide the uterus into four squares. In each of them it is necessary to determine the maximum vertical pocket. The obtained indicators are summarized, and the result indicates an index.
