Brief Answer:
your body mass index is normal so don't worry
Detailed Answer:
welcome to healthcare magic,
your weight for height is within normal limits so you are healthy as you said you have central obesity only, i will definitely say no nutritional supplements and drugs will help you. the best and only good option i will advice you is
1. Regular exercises both morning and evening for one hour each session
the exercises must include abdominal muscle pressing exercises
and pranayama or breathing exercise where you have to constantly breathe out using your abdominal muscles as long as you can do it
2. avoiding snacks in between meals
3. avoiding fried items
Before taking any anti lipid lowering medications i will definitely ask you to do lipid profile though you are not obese.
no magical drugs and protein suppliments can make you muscular. these protein suppliments will work only you do your muscle building exercises regularly.
hope this explains your present condition in detail.
