A Musculoskeletal Atlas of the human body offering anatomical terminology for muscles, bones, joints and nerves. Nutrient Info Database Developed by the USDA, this database will allow you to search for the nutrient profile of more than 6000 food items. Explore the Heart Use this interactive tool to explore the flow of blood, cardiac cycle, conduction system, chambers and valves of the heart. Calculate Your Risk of Heart Attack Determine your risk for developing heart disease or having a heart attack and find out what your cholesterol goal should be. Calculate Your Real (Health) Age Your Real (Health) Age is the biological age of your body, based on how well you've maintained it through various measurements and lifestyle behaviours. This tool will also allow you to calculate your life expectancy. Body Composition, Target Weight & Ratio Kids Body Composition Adult Body Composition I (Advanced Measurement) Adult Body Composition II (General Measurement) Target Weight Waist-Hip Ratio Waist-to-Height Ratio Calculate Your BMI (Body Mass Index) The Body Mass Index is a poor measurement and a controversially inaccurate indicator to assess health. An ideal BMI (which the measurement considers to be healthy) is between 20.5 and 21.5.However, it makes absolutely no distinction between body weight from muscle and body weight from fat which labels a broad segment of the athletic and similar healthy populations as overweight and obese. It is limited in its ability to predict deaths caused by heart attacks or strokes (yet it's still used by Physicians). High BMIs (35 and over) are linked to increased risk of cardiovascular events but not to increased mortality overall. BMIs less than 20 are linked to increased risk of cardiovascular events AND to total mortality. Calculate your BMR (Baso-Metabolic Rate) Your BMR, or basal metabolic rate (metabolism), is the energy (measured in calories) expended by the body at rest to maintain normal bodily functions. This continual work makes up about 60-70% of the calories we use and includes the beating of our heart, respiration, and the maintenance of body temperature. Calculate Your Target Heart Rate To get the maximum benefit from exercise, it is best to work at a pre-determined target heart rate. Try these two calculators to get the best range for your heart rate during your training. PreventDisease.com © 2011. All Rights Reserved. Let's Get Healthy, Coach TIA |
