Peter Ho shows off his mermaid line and advocates healthy waist measurement

Peter Ho, a popular star with a handsome face, perfect proportions and chiseled body lines, has stepped out to serve as the public welfare spokesperson for "Measure Your Waist Day". On behalf of the Millennium Love Health Foundation and the National Health Administration, he appealed to the public that it's okay not to have a mermaid line. The most important thing is that boys should maintain a waist circumference within 90 cm (35 inches), and women should not exceed 80 cm (31 inches).

Perfect Mermaid Line advocates public welfare and is not left behind

Peter Ho, who has a perfect mermaid line, attended the "Measure Your Waist Day" event held by the Millennium Love Foundation on the 9th as a public welfare ambassador. He mentioned that the best way for him to maintain his figure is to eat a diet low in oil and calories, and to do regular fitness exercises.

Peter Ho said: "There should be no mermaid line, and there should be no 'tuna line'!" To maintain a healthy waistline, you can adopt a "3D healthy life", that is, do exercise─ do exercise regularly, do a healthy diet─ maintain a healthy diet, do control─ control blood sugar, blood lipids, blood pressure, etc., to avoid physical diseases caused by metabolic syndrome.

Waist measurement day: less than 80 cm (31 inches) for women and less than 90 cm (35 inches) for men

Chiu Shu-ti, director of the National Health Administration, who attended the event, said that measuring waists on August 9th is about achieving a healthy waist circumference, which means less than 80 cm (31 inches) for women and less than 90 cm (35 inches) for men. As women age, hormone secretion decreases, which can cause moderate to widespread obesity and increase the threat of metabolic syndrome. They should start with diet and exercise, taking at least 3 days a week to exercise for 30 minutes a day to keep their bodies healthier.

Monitor your waistline: Learn to measure your waistline correctly in 3 steps

If you want to monitor your waistline, it is essential to measure your waistline correctly. You should remember these three steps:

1. Remove clothing covering your waist and stand comfortably with your hands hanging naturally.

2. Wrap the tape measure around the waist and adjust the height of the tape measure to the middle point between the upper edge of the ilium and the lower edge of the ribs on both sides. Keep the tape measure level with the ground, close to the skin without squeezing it.

3. At the end of the "exhale", measure your waist circumference.
