Body mass index (BMI) is one of the most accurate ways to measure obesity in practice. BMI is calculated by dividing the body weight with the square of height (kg/m 2). According to the World Health Organization, the normal range of BMI is between 18.5 and 24.9, and individuals with a BMI of 25-30 are considered to be overweight, while those with a BMI over 30 are classified as obese [1].
