Review Government use of BMI, and definitions for obesity and overweight


The Government should base policy on an improved system that uses medical advances to assess if a person is a healthy weight.

There are various factors to take into consideration to determine a person's healthy weight. I believe the BMI system is flawed and obsolete.

The Government should not encourage people to determine their own healthy weight based on just their height and weight, or use this measure to inform policy.
