🇮🇳 Why Asian BMI Thresholds?
- South Asians carry more visceral fat at lower BMIs than Western populations
- Metabolic risk rises from BMI 23+ in Indians (vs. 25+ in Western guidelines)
- Diabetes and heart disease risk is higher at the same BMI compared to Europeans
- Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) recommends these thresholds for India
⚠️ BMI does not account for muscle mass, bone density, or fat distribution. Athletes and elderly individuals may receive misleading BMI readings. Always discuss your results with a qualified healthcare provider.
