 ASSIGNMENT 1
Calculate the Body Mass Index (BMI) of 10 individuals. Record their
height and weight to determine their BMI. Describe how BMI is
calculated and discuss the significance of different BMI ranges in terms
of health.

BMI Calculation Formula:

BMI= weight (kg)/ height (m)2

Table for 10 individuals with their respective weights (in kilograms) and
heights (in meters)

PERSON WEIGHT (kg) HEIGHT (m) BMI

PERSON 1 65 1.75 21.22

PERSON 2 70 1.60 27.34

PERSON 3 80 1.80 24.69

PERSON 4 90 1.70 31.14

PERSON 5 55 1.65 20.20

PERSON 6 75 1.78 19.90

PERSON 7 85 1.68 30.11

PERSON 8 60 1.55 24.97

PERSON 9 70 1.75 22.85

PERSON 10 95 1.85 27.75

 Significance of different BMI ranges in terms of health:
Underweight (BMI < 18.5): Individuals falling in this range may have a
lower-than-healthy body weight, which might indicate nutritional deficiencies
or other health concerns.

Normal Weight (BMI 18.5 - 24.9): This range is considered healthy.

Individuals within this range typically have a balanced weight in relation to
their height, reducing the risk of obesity-related health issues.

Overweight (BMI 25 - 29.9): People in this range have higher body weight
relative to their height, increasing the risk of developing conditions like heart
disease, diabetes, and hypertension.

Obesity (BMI ≥ 30): Individuals with obesity have a significantly higher risk
of chronic diseases, including cardiovascular problems, type 2 diabetes,
certain cancers, and musculoskeletal issues.
 ASSIGNMENT 2
Design personalized diet plans for the 10 individuals based on their BMI,
age, weight goals, and any specific dietary preferences or restrictions
they might have. Explain the principles behind a balanced diet and how
these plans cater to individual nutritional needs.

Principles Behind a Balanced Diet:

A balanced diet includes a variety of nutrients in appropriate proportions to
maintain overall health. It typically consists of:
Macronutrients: Carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in suitable amounts.
Micronutrients: Vitamins and minerals essential for various bodily functions.
Fiber: Crucial for digestive health.
Fluids: Proper hydration is vital for overall well-being.

Personalized Diet Plans:

 Person 1 (BMI: 21.22) - Weight Maintenance

Balanced diet with emphasis on lean proteins, whole grains, fruits, and
vegetables.
Moderate exercise routine to maintain weight.

 Person 2 (BMI: 27.34) - Weight Loss

Reduced calorie intake with portion control.
Increased fiber intake through vegetables and whole grains.
Regular aerobic exercises and strength training.

 Person 3 (BMI: 24.69) - Weight Maintenance

Balanced diet with portion control.
Cardio exercises and moderate strength training.
  Person 4 (BMI: 31.14) - Weight Loss

Combination of cardio and strength training exercises.

 Person 7 (BMI: 30.08) - Weight Loss
