What the colours mean
Asian-Indian scale
WHO Expert Consultation 2004 public-health action points for Asian populations.
Standard WHO scale
The international classification, unchanged since 2000 and still used by most calculators.

These calculators use published population formulas; they cannot account for your individual health. Consult a doctor before major diet or exercise changes.
