The Body Mass Index (also referred to as BMI) is a mathematical calculation used to determine whether a person is overweight or not. The formula uses a combination of height and weight and is a standard measure of ideal weight in most countries.

Obesity is associated with higher risks regarding certain cancers, diabetes, osteoarthritis etc. Overweight people should consider losing some weight to reduce their risks of illness.
