Do you know if you are at the right weight our weight?<\/p>\n<p>Did you know that there is a chart that describes the average weight that is healthy for a person who weighs a particular weight called as the<strong> \u201cbody mass Index\u201d<\/strong>?<\/p>\n<p>Let us explore a bit of this Body Mass Index..<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is Body Mass Index?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Body mass index is a ratio of the weight of the person to the square of the height of a person.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why is it used? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The BMI is a popular index used to estimate whether the person is underweight, overweight or normal weight. The BMI is not an exact number but normally a range of values that fall in the range of under 18.5 to over 30.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do the values mean? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Values under 18.5 normally indicate the person is underweight.<\/p>\n<p>Values from 18.5 to 23 are normally the normal range.<\/p>\n<p>25 and above is considered overweight. While, 30 and above is considered obese.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What does this mean to you? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Once you know your weight, it is time to measure your weight and then use the <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.areratech.bloodforsure&amp;hl=en_IN\">VMEDO app<\/a><\/strong><\/span> to calculate the Body Mass Index for you and check the ratio that you get. Most medical practitioners these days use this ratio to get a general understanding of your body type and habits.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Any causes of concern? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The big cause of concern is when you find yourself in the range that is below 18, this means that you are either suffering from malnutrition or <strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Anorexia_nervosa\">anorexia<\/a><\/span><\/strong>. These symptoms need to be addressed by taking your case to a doctor and following the instructions to help reach a more healthier <strong>BMI<\/strong>. These symptoms are medical conditions that can lead to complications that lead to bone problems, <strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/vmedo.com\/are-you-suffering-from-lower-back-ache\/\">backaches<\/a><\/span><\/strong> and in fatigue in general.<\/p>\n<p>If in case you fall under the overweight category then too it is still a cause of concern, since there is a high possibility that you may in the risk of contracting long-term illnesses such as diabetes and also a moderate risk of being susceptible to cardiovascular problems.<\/p>\n<p>This is when you need to take action and stop problems even before they start.<\/p>\n<p>Being overweight normally involves a large concentration of adipose or fat around the belly that can lead to larger stress on the heart and also may be contributing to your back ache and posture issues.
