more of an indicator than a direct measurement of a person’s total body fat.
The WHO defines an adult who has a BMI between 25 and 29.9 as overweight - an adult who has a
BMI of 30 or higher is considered obese - a BMI below 18.5 is considered underweight, and between
18.5 to 24.9 a healthy weight .
BMI calculation
BMI in an individual is calculated by the use of a mathematical formula. It can also be estimated using
tables in which one can match height in inches to weight in pounds to estimate BMI. There are
convenient calculators available on internet sites that help calculate BMI as well.
To compute for your BMI use the formula, Weight/ Height2 (metre)
Example. 63 kg./1.73cm2 = 21.07 (normal)
The table below is the ideal BMI of individuals ranging 16-60 years old
