Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measurement tool to determine how healthy your weight is for your given height. Generally speaking, the ideal range for BMI in adults is 18-25 kg/m2. A BMI above 25 is considered overweight, while obese individuals have a BMI greater than 30 kg/m2. If you feel your BMI is posing a health risk to you, visit your physician to address this.
