The BMI is called as Body mass index is an index of mass (weight) and height. The value is expressed in kg/m² resulting from kg in mass and height in meters.

BMI is measured by mass/height. BMI for a normal person is about less than 25kg/m for overweight is 29kg/m and for an obese is about more than 30 kg/m.
