health problems.

BMI Weight Status
Below 18.5 Underweight
18.5 - 24.9 Normal
25.0 - 29.9 Overweight
30.0 and Above Obese



BMI calculation
Formula for kilograms & meters :
weight (kg)/[height (m)]2

Example: Height = 165 cm (1.65 m), Weight = 68 kg Calculation: 68 ÷
(1.65)2 = 24.98

Formula For pounds & inches:
weight (lb) / [height (in)]2 x703

Calculate BMI by dividing weight in pounds (lbs) by height in inches
(in) squared and multiplying by a conversion factor of 703

Example: Weight = 150 lbs, Height = 5'5"(65")

Calculation: [150 ÷ (65)2] x 703 = 24.96

Ayurvedic Treatment for Controlling obesity
A huge number of people undergo some form of treatment to reduce their
weight, usually either in an attempt to improve their health, to
improve their lifestyle, or for cosmetic reasons.

The generally recommended treatment for being overweight is a modified

Regular physical activity is critical for the prevention of abnormal
weight gain and weight maintenance. The current recommendation for the
amount of physical activity is 30 to 60 minutes of regular exercise
daily. Yoga is definitely is 100 % sure technique. Studies suggest
that reducing calorie intake by itself (dieting) may have short-term
effects but does not lead to long-term weight loss, and can often
result in gaining back all of the lost weight and more in the longer
term. For this reason, it is generally recommended that weight-loss
diets not be attempted on their own but instead in combination with
increased exercise and long-term planning and weight management.
According to our study it is found that Power Yoga is very effective
in weight management and controlling obesity. Your waist to hip ration
should not exceed 0.8 for women and 1.0 for men. Hath yoga and vinyas
