Between 1980 and 2000 the U.S. Dietary Guidelines have defined overweight at a variety of levels ranging from a BMI of 24.9 to 27.1. In 1985 the National Institutes of Health (NIH) consensus conference recommended that overweight BMI be set at a BMI of 27.8 for men and 27.3 for women. In 1998 a NIH report concluded that a BMI over 25 is overweight and a BMI over 30 is obese.
In contrast, Europeans at a normal BMI have much lower body fat percentages â 25 percent for women and 18 percent for men â according to a small study of Swiss adults. (A BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 is considered normal). âThese are surprisingly high percentages, especially for people with normal BMIs,â Dr. St-Onge says.
