Genetic evidence of assortative mating in humans
A Better Index of Body Adiposity
Obesity is a growing problem in the United States and throughout the world. It is a risk factor for many chronic diseases. The BMI has been used to assess body fat for almost 200 years. BMI is known to be of limited accuracy, and is different for males and females with similar %body adiposity. Here, we define an alternative parameter, the body adiposity index (BAI = ((hip circumference)/((height) 1.5 )–18)). The BAI can be used to reflect %body f…
