Charlie had some tests done recently to assess his risk for certain diseases. the results showed that he has a waist circumference of 47 inches, a bmi of 29, and a normal skin fold measurement test. what should charlie do? a. charlie is a little too thin, he is most likely underweight, and he needs to consult a dietician or doctor to him see how to modify his diet to gain some weight. b. charlie should repeat the caliper test because it does not fit with the other information, and he should start an exercise routine and diet to reduce his body fat. c. charlie should immediately start an exercise and diet program because all his tests indicate that he is extremely obese, which puts him at risk for several diseases. d. charlie should repeat the bmi because the other tests were normal, and he should avoid changing his body composition because he'll be too overweight.

The correct answer is B.
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measurement used to categorize individuals as underweight, normal weight, overweight or obese. The index is derived from the mass (weight) and the height of an individual. Any BMI values under 18.5 are characterized underweight, between 18.5 and 25 normal weight, between 25 and 30 overweight and any value over 30 obese. Charlie's value is 29, therefore according to its BMI, he is considered overweight. The waist circumference is an index of the fat around the stomach, which can raise someone's risk of heart disease or other serious health issues. Any waist circumference above 40 inches is considered a high-risk situation and further measures should be taken after contacting a health specialist. A skinfold caliper is a device used to assess the thickness of a fold of your skin along with its underlying fat tissue. It's a test that can show how much fat our body has. Charlie's BMI index and waist circumference show that he is overweight with a dangerous concentration of fat around his waistline and stomach. He should repeat the caliper test because the information it provides does not correspond to the information from the other two tests. He should also contact his doctor and start changing his habits and lifestyle.
