Appendix A: Identification of weight status and associated health risk by Riopelle Fat Type Level, Waist-To-Hip ratio, and body shape in men.

Riopelle Fat Type Level	Whr	Body shape	Weight status	Health risk
1	> 0.80-0.85	---	Normal	Low
2	> 0.85-0.90^a	---	Overweight	Moderate
3	> 0.90-0.95	---	Overweight	Moderately high^b
4	> 0.95-1.00	Pear	Obesity	High to very high^c
5	> 1.00-1.05	Avocado	Severe obesity	Very high
6	> 1.05	Apple	Very severe obesity	Extremely high

^aWHR < 0.90 and waist circumference > 40 inches/102 cm is Riopelle Fat Type Level 3; ^bIncreased risk if WC is ≤ 40 inches/102 cm; high risk if WC is > 40 inches/102 cm; ^cHigh risk if WC is ≤ 40 inches/102 cm; very high risk if WC is > 40 inches/102 cm.
