Find your BMI and determine your risk status.
Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of one’s weight based on height and weight. It helps you to know whether you’re underweight, or normal weight, or overweight, or obese. BMI is applicable to both men and women.
Men look in perfect shape when their BMI value lies in the range of 23 to 25. Women look in perfect shape when their BMI value lies in the range of 20 to 22.
