You Overweight? Calculate Your BMI |
Scientific studies clearly indicate that obesity
is linked to increased sickness and death rates. Hypertension, elevated levels
of cholesterol, heart disease, stroke, certain cancers, gall bladder disease,
back pain, arthritis, abnormal pulmonary function, and sleep apnea are physical
problems intensified by obesity. The health risks of being overweight may be prevented
by achieving and maintaining an ideal body weight. Obesity is determined
using body-mass index (BMI), a method of comparing height to weight. A BMI of
25 to 29.9 is considered overweight, and a reading over 30 is considered obese.
A BMI of 19 to 24.9 is considered normal weight. Using that standard, obesity
researchers have estimated that more than half of adult Americans are either overweight
or obese. Body
mass index (BMI) has been the medical standard for obesity measurement since the
early 1980s. Government researchers developed it to take height into account in
weight measurement. For example, let's say someone weighs 150 pounds. Is he or
she obese? That's impossible to say without knowing the person's height. The answers
would be different for someone who is 5' 0" tall, 5' 5", and 6'.
