Seth is 18 years old, weighs 250 pounds, and is 72 inches tall. Use the formula and chart below to evaluate his weight, and then answer the question. Why is the consumption of dietary supplements considered risky?

According to his height and weight, Seth is obese, and the consumption of extra calories or dietary supplements can produce serious health risks.

Explanation:

The body mass index (BMI) is a measure that relates weight to height, and indicates the nutritional status of a person, indicating whether the weight is normal, with deficit or excess. Currently, this parameter is used to establish the degree of obesity and the risk that this can have for health.

The nutritional classification of a person according to BMI is:

The formula for calculating BMI, taking into account weight in pounds and height in inches is:

                             BMI = (weight / height² ) x 703

Taking into account Seth's weight and height:

- BMI = (250 pounds / 72²) x 703

- BMI = (250 / 5184) x 703 = 0,048 x 703

- BMI = 33,744 pounds/in²

Seth is obese, as his BMI is 33,744 pounds/in², and this puts him at risk for metabolic diseases, such as diabetes, or long-term cardiovascular disease. The use of dietary supplements, without a specific diet, can increase the risk of obesity-related diseases.
