People are considered obese when their body mass index (BMI)‚ a measurement obtained by dividing a person’s weight in kilograms by the square of the person’s height in meters exceeds 30 kg/m2. Obesity increases the likelihood of several diseases particularly heart disease‚ type 2 diabetes‚ obstructive sleep apnea‚ certain types of cancers‚ and osteoarthritis. Obesity is

This system was not accepted at first because of the trouble people had with converting their measurements to metric. Eventually laws were past
