BMI stands for Body Mass Index. This is a numerical value of your weight in relation to your height. A BMI between 18.5 and 25 kg/mÂ² indicates a normal weight. A BMI of less than 18.5 kg/mÂ² is considered underweight. A BMI between 25 kg/mÂ² and 29.9 kg/mÂ² is considered overweight. A BMI of 30 kg/mÂ² or higher is considered obese. Excess weight increases the heart's work. It also raises blood pressure and blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels and lowers HDL (good) cholesterol levels.
