According to the body mass index or BMI, it is classified as overweight or obese. Obesity is a BMI greater than or equal to 30 and overweight is a BMI greater than 25.
It has now been seen that the BMI is not the only thing that matters, it matters the percentage of muscle mass, visceral fat, water, among other things.
Obesity is associated with many other diseases, which is why its diagnosis and timely treatment with internal medicine and nutrition are essential.
It is important to mention that the BMI does not discriminate between the percentage of fat and muscle, therefore, it is not a good parameter to evaluate the nutritional status of the patient.
