Why HPB Uses Lower Cutoffs Than WHO
Multiple studies of Singaporean and Asian populations show that metabolic risk factors such as diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidaemia begin to rise at BMI values of 23.0 — well below the WHO overweight threshold of 25.0. Singapore's HPB adopted these lower cutoffs to provide more accurate health risk assessments for Singaporeans and other Asian ethnic groups.
