It gauges risk for diseases from excess body fat. 2. The document then discusses obesity in more detail and lists some diseases associated with increased BMI like cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. 3. Protein energy malnutrition (PEM) is described as resulting from severe energy and protein deficiency, with examples given as Kwashiorkor and Marasmus, which are two distinct malnutrition syndromes.

    BODY MASS INDEX (BMI)
    Provides the most useful measure of
    overweight conditions and obesity
    Measure both sexes and all ages of
    adults.
    Gauge to determines your risk for
    diseases as a result of excess body fat
    BMI ( > or = to 25 – overweight)
    BMI ( > or = to 30 – obese)
    OBESITY # 1
    OBESITY # 2
    OBESITY
    Excess body fat tissue which
    results t0 20% more of excess in
    the desirable weight.
    Nutritional disorder that may be
    difficult to manage

    – high blood pressure
    – Diabetes
    – gall stones
    – Musculoskeletal disorders
    – degenerative disease of the joints
    – cancer such as colon and breast cancer
    Protein Energy Malnutrition
    (PEM)
    result of severe deficiency of
    energy and protein.
    Examples:
    – Kwashiorkor
    –Marasmus
    Two Distinct syndromes
    Kwashiorkor
    – caused by a deficiency of protein in
    the presence of adequate energy.
    – nutritional disorders manifest
    weight, fat and muscle loss and
    growth failure
    –Severe cases, all organs are
    affected
    Two Distinct syndromes
    describes a PEM
    Marasmus
    – caused by a combined protein
    and energy deficiency which is
    most commonly seen where
    adequate quantities of food are
