BODY MASS INDEX (BMI)...AN IMPORTANT STEP TOWARDS BETTER HEALTH


Having a great and a healthy body requires more than wishful thinking. You can wish and imagine all you want but it would not change a thing if you don’t take action.

The first action you need to take is to know your BMI…body mass index.

Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to adult men and women. It is a value derived from the weight and height of an individual.

According to the BMI scale, anything under 18.5 is regarded as underweight,  normal weight is 18.5 to 25, overweight is 25 to 30 and anything above 30 is classified as obese.

After knowing your BMI, if you are found to be overweight or obese; the next line of action is to take concrete steps towards losing weight fast. CLICK HERE TO KNOW YOUR BMI
