Body Mass Index (BMI) is a rough estimation of the body fat composition of an individual calculated by dividing the weight in kilograms by the height in meters squared of the individual, taking into consideration the age and gender of the individual. For adults, a BMI value between 18.5 and 24.9 is considered normal. A BMI value of 25 and above is considered overweight, while above 30 would indicate the person is obese.
