Visual Signs That You Actually Have Health Problems

Your Waist Is Bigger Than Your Hips

Dreamtime

Heart disease describes a range of conditions that affect your heart. Diseases under the heart disease umbrella include blood vessel diseases, such as coronary artery disease; heart rhythm problems (arrhythmias); and heart defects you're born with (congenital heart defects), among others.

Men who have a waist that is bigger than their hips are said to be at more risk of heart disease than other people. In most cases this is a very apparent visual sign of being unhealthy in a few different ways.

It can also be seen as a sign of vulnerability to type 2 diabetes in some cases. As common as this visual health sign is, it's never something that should be left on the back burner. Even if its a gradual change, always consult your physician at least once a year to make sure you know exactly what the physical change to your body means.
