The Guidelines for the Prevention and Treatment of Overweight and Obesity among Adults in China issued by the Health Planning Commission clearly stipulates that the waist circumference of men is above 85 cm and that of women is above 80 cm.
Experts suggest that people with excessive waistlines should change their lifestyles as soon as possible, exercise for more than half an hour every day, and do moderate-intensity aerobic exercise such as brisk walking and jogging at least five days a week. At the same time, quit smoking and limit alcohol, eat reasonably, eat less high-oil and high-fat foods, and eat more fruits and vegetables.
