An Easy Method To Calculate BMI

BMI calculation may be difficult for the mathematically weak. But certainly there is an easier option, though it may not be precisely a scientific approach. Just divide your height in cm by two. So in other words the waist size should not cross half of your height in cm. That is waist to height ratio should be 0.5:1. Anything more than this value is high risk for diseases. In healthy Indian and Asian population, the waist size should not cross 90cm (35") for male & 80cm (31") for female.

This method is relatively easier than the BMI. If the measure of your waistline (in cm) is more than half the value of your height (in cm) you certainly are not of normal weight. The only glitch in this method is while we can tell if we are normal weight or not, we cannot ascertain which category of obesity we fall under. So any day BMI calculation is more scientifically approved.

Symptoms of Ulcer

Symptoms of Ulcer Every ailment has a moderate start and peptic ulcers are no exception to the rule. 90% of the people present themselves to the doctor only after complaining of pain. The pain could either be mild / dull or intense or a rather slowly progressing pain on the upper abdomen area. Generally a feeling of a heart burn should ring alarm bells. More clearly, if there is a burning sensation or pain somewhere in between the chest and the belly button; it can be signs of ulcer. The burning sensation or pain either lasts for few minutes or can last for few hours. This sensation of course can recur. But before ulcer can manifest fully and pain begin to show up, they do give other symptoms beforehand, probably forewarning you of what is coming. A sense of bloating (gaseous abdomen) a sense of feeling full even after having very small amount of meal (a condition referred as early satiety ), a general feeling of loss of appetite, burping often and feeling nause...
