"BMI is a number calculated by dividing a person’s weight in kilograms by his or her height in meters squared. BMI is used in determining obesity. Obesity is most commonly calculated using BMI. An adult with a BMI of 30 or greater is clinically obese.

BMI is not used to determine a person’s actual percentage of body fat, but it is a good indicator in terms of what is healthy and unhealthy."

Calculate your BMI on the Obesity foundation India (OFI) website: obesityfoundationindia.com/...
