Adults who are Overweight or Obese (BRFS)

This indicator shows the percentage of adults who are overweight or obese according to the Body Mass Index (BMI). The BMI is calculated by taking a person's weight and dividing it by their height squared in metric units (BMI = Weight (Kg)/[Height (m) ^ 2]). A BMI between 25 and 29.9 is considered overweight and a BMI >=30 is considered obese.
