The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a numerical value derived from a person's weight and height, used to categorize individuals into weight ranges. It is calculated using the formula: weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared.

This excess fat storage occurs when surplus dietary calories are converted into triglycerides and stored in...
