Good to know

BMI = weight (kg) ÷ height (m)². Categories follow the WHO adult ranges.
For people of South Asian origin, India's guidelines treat a BMI of 23 or more as overweight, because health risks start at lower BMI.
For children and teenagers, BMI is judged against age and sex charts, so these categories don't apply.
BMI doesn't tell muscle from fat. Talk to a doctor about your health.
