BMI means body mass index.
To calculate this you must know your weight in kilogram and height in meters. Now get square of your height in meters. Divide your weight in Kg by square of your height in meters.This value is expressed as Kg per meter square. The normal value is up to 25. More than this till 29.99 is called overweight. After 30 it is called obesity.
For Asians it should be preferably below 23. Overweight and obesity is associated with hypertension, diabetes and heart attacks etc.
I hope now you know about BMI.
