Cardiologists use neck circumference as one of the most reliable predictors of cardiovascular disease, heart attack risk, and metabolic syndrome in men over 50. This simple measurement reveals visceral fat accumulation, inflammation levels, and cardiovascular health better than BMI or waist circumference alone.
Research published in the American Journal of Cardiology tracked 3,300 men and found neck circumference above 16 inches (40.6 cm) correlated with significantly elevated cardiovascular disease risk, independent of body weight, age, or other traditional risk factors. Each additional inch above the threshold increased heart attack risk by 15-18%.
Your neck measurement reveals what's happening internally. A thick neck indicates visceral fat deposits around the heart and major arteries, systemic inflammation, sleep apnea risk (which further damages cardiovascular health), and metabolic dysfunction. But here's the key: unlike genetics, neck circumference is modifiable through specific interventions.
You can measure yourself right now with a tape measure or string. The test takes 30 seconds and provides more actionable cardiovascular insight than most expensive medical tests. Where do you rank?
