Research since has shown that people of Asian descent tend to develop higher body fat percentage and higher risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease at lower BMI values. WHO's Asia-Pacific guidance lowers the "overweight" and "obese" thresholds accordingly — which is why we show both here for our Southeast Asian users.
BMI is a screening tool, not a diagnosis — it doesn't distinguish muscle from fat and doesn't account for age, sex, or where fat is distributed. If your BMI is outside the normal range, a doctor can help you understand what it actually means for your health.
