What
does BMI mean?
BMI stands for Body Mass Index and is a more
reliable indicator of body fat than weight. BMI is one way of
measuring your health risk, because excess weight and /or body
fat can lead to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and other diseases.
Other factors that are also important to your health include your
daily diet, exercise level, waist measurement, blood pressure
reading, family history of disease, smoking status, and levels
of blood sugar and cholesterol. BMI is not a diagnostic tool,
but it is used as a screening tool to identify possible weight
problems in adults.
Obesity is
a public health matter. About 64% of adults and 15% of children
are overweight or obese. The reasons for these high percentages
are complex, but genetics, culture, social status, and levels
of blood sugar and cholesterol all play a role.
