With BMI (Body Mass Index), you will see whether your weight influences your health, and do you need to take measures accordingly, if you are in the risk group. BMI is a way to determine when the extra weight becomes a threat to our health. BMI is an indicator which uses the weight and the height of a certain person to calculate the fat in his organism. For people with BMI 26 or 27 usually there is s small risk for their health. People with BMI results over 30.0 are considered overweight. Over 33.0 is an indicator for high risk for you and presence of other health problems.
Heart diseases, diabetes and high blood pressure are all diseases connected with overweight. People with weight over the normal limits, but with no other problems with their health (like high blood cholesterol levels), should eat healthy food and do more exercises if they want to keep their weight. For people who are overweight and have other health problems, it is recommended to get rid of their extra pounds as quick as possible. We advice you to talk with your personal physician or nutritionist before you start any kind of diet plan.
If you have BMI 24 or less you are in the norms and it is not risky for your health.
With BMI from 25.0 to 29.9, you are considered to be overweight. For people who have BMI 25.0-34.9 and with 102cm for men and 88cm for women waist measurement, the risk is very high.
