False

Explanation:

This statement is false, even though there may be many people who are obese, it is false to say more than 50% are obese.

BMI (Body Mass Index) is calculated as a ratio of mass and height. However, it is not completely accurate, because some people may have a low or high BMI, and be (medically diagnosed) in good health.

If your BMI is:

Below 18: This means you are underweight

18-24: Average weight

24-30: Overweight

Over 30: Obese

(Once again, many people can be classified by their BMI as overweight or underweight, but be in good health according to doctors).
