RÉSUMÉ
Introduction: Many external and internal factors eitherdirectly or indirectly regulate our health. Similarly, manyparameters such as high glucose, high cholesterol, and highblood pressure are the indicators of our healthiness. BodyMass Index (BMI) and Waist to Height Ratio (WtHR) aresuch parameters which indicate the degree of healthiness of anindividual. Current study aimed at estimation and comparisonof the statistical relationships of BMI, body weight and WtHRwith serum cholesterol level in healthy Individuals of agegroup of 18-30.Material and methods: This study was done on total 54healthy persons (27 male and 27 females) of age group 18-30. The data of age, height weight and waist circumference ofall participants were collected. In their fasting blood samples,total serum cholesterol was measured by colorimetric kit.In this study statistical correlation was confirmed by threedifferent statistical methods.Results: Our statistical analysis suggested that BMI, bodyweight and WtHR are positively correlated with average totalserum cholesterol level with a significant p value (<0.05).Statistical correlation coefficient values further suggestedthat BMI could be a better predictor of cholesterol levelassociated diseases as compared to body weight and WtHR inhealthy individuals of age group 18-30. High BMI and Waistcircumference are indicators of overweight and/ obesity.Conclusion: These findings indicated that BMI could be abetter predictor of cholesterol level associated diseases ascompared to body weight and WtHR in healthy individuals ofage group 18-30.
