Is BMI enough to assess health risk for Indians?
Why do Indian BMI and waist cutoffs differ from global charts?
South Asian populations often show higher metabolic risk at lower BMI and waist values. That is why India-relevant cutoffs can flag risk earlier than generic global ranges.
Can I have a normal BMI but still have metabolic risk?
Yes. A normal BMI with high waist circumference or poor metabolic markers can still indicate increased risk. Use BMI as a screening metric, not a final diagnosis.
What is the next practical step after seeing a high-risk result?
Start with consistent calorie control, protein-focused meals, daily movement, and strength training. If risk is elevated, validate with clinical tests and professional guidance.
