Hello, thank you for the question to HealthReplies.com
The normal body mass index for Asians is 18.5 - 22.9 kg / m2. People who have a BMI under 18.5 are said to be underweight, people who have a BMI between 23-26.9 are said to be overweight, while those who have a BMI of more than 27 are called obese.
Underweight can have several health impacts, including:
malnutrition or nutritional deficiencies, including can experience vitamin and mineral deficiencies
anemia
osteoporosis
decreased immune system
increased risk of complications when performed surgery
menstrual disorders in women
impaired growth and development in children
Overweight and obesity can also cause an increased risk of developing health problems such as:

and many more
