Good evening, i need help to improve my below results: based on your screening results your waist circumference of 98.0 cm, your body mass index (bmi) of 33 and your total cholesterol of 6.80 mmol/l were recorded out of range. ?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
More info needed...: Knowing your height and weight would result in a more meaningful answer, but with a BMI of 33, you could benefit your overall health by losing some weight. A healthy low caloric diet and plenty of sweat producing exercise should help you achieve your goals.

Need more info: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, you are overweight and losing weight is essential, not easy, but essential. Exercise and reducing your intake of food are mandatory. Wish you good health!
