Alpha Ayurveda BMI Calculator
Body Mass Index or BMI calculator is widely used to determine the healthy weight of a person. It is a reliable source of determination for body fatness. The number is obtained by calculating the weight and height of the person.
Health indicator of BMI:
BMI Below 18.5 | Underweight |
BMI Between 18.5-24 | Normal/Healthy weight |
BMI Between 25-29.9 | Overweight |
BMI Above 30 | Obese |
If you fall into the overweight category, you should consider increasing your physical activity and restricting your diet.
If you're someone with a BMI of more than 30, it is highly recommended you bring about lifestyle changes to reduce your weight and consult a physician to avoid any health issue that may come with obesity.
Falling in the normal weight means your current weight is of healthy mass. But it does not mean your body is healthy from all health issues. Maintaining this normal weight is very important to avoid diseases.
Having BMI less than 18.5 means your weight is low, and various health issues could be associated with that. People with low BMI may suffer from low immunity, malnourishment, or osteoporosis. Increasing diet, having Staamigen or Sakhi Tone helps increase their weight and maintain a healthy overall body. Strength training would be an added advantage.
