Obesity is a major public health problem characterized by excessive accumulation of body fat that may impair health. The World Health Organization (WHO) primarily uses Body Mass Index (BMI) as a simple and widely accepted measure for classifying overweight and obesity among adults. BMI is calculated by dividing a person’s body weight in kilograms by the square of height in metres. [ BMI=\frac{\text{Weight in kg}}{(\text{Height in metres})^2} ] According to WHO, for adults aged 18 years and above, a BMI of 25 kg/m² or more indicates overweight, while a BMI of 30 kg/m² or more indicates obesity. Obesity is further classified according to the degree of excess body weight. * Normal body weight: BMI 18.5–24.9 kg/m². * Overweight: BMI 25.0–29.9 kg/m². * Obesity Class I: BMI 30.0–34.9 kg/m². * Obesity Class
