Obesity is normally defined by the body mass index,
or BMI, calculated by dividing weight in kilograms by
height in meters squared. An index of between 18.5
and 25 is considered healthy, while those with a score
between 25 and 29 are classed as overweight and those
whose BMI is higher than that are considered obese.
This is the only part of the article where SI vs. ifp would be an issue.
