A recent study from Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm (Sweden), did not surprisingly show that a small waist and a waist-hip ratio les than 0,85, are factors in preventing Myocardial Infarction in Women. The study does not say how important the small waist and waist-hip ratio is, or if it is as beneficiary when the small waist and small waist-hip ratio are achieved by corset wear. The study is titled Combined Effect of Low-Risk Dietary and Lifestyle Behaviors in Primary Prevention of Myocardial Infarction in Women.
