* NOTE: Since your BMI (your weight in relation to your height) is below 18.5, you may be below the safety minimum.

The BMI classification and health risk information provided above are based on Clinical Guidelines on the Identification, Evaluation, and Treatment of Overweight and Obesity in Adults published by National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, National Institutes of Health, in 1998. Health risk mentioned here includes disease risk for type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease. Obesity classification is based on the American Society for Bariatric Surgery classification.

Ideal body weight is associated with the lowest death rate in insured populations and is taken from the 1983 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company tables.
