| Body mass index (BMI) is a measurement
based on height and weight as it relates to body
fat, and can be used to determine how much risk
a person has of developing certain health
problems because of his or her weight. As a
point of reference, someone with a BMI of 27 is
approximately 20 percent overweight. The higher
the BMI, the greater the risk a person has to
develop additional health problems.
