Underweight refers to a human who is considered to be under a healthy weight . Underweight means weighing less than what is expected to be a healthy person (underweight = insufficiency of weight). The definition is usually made with reference to the body mass index (BMI). A BMI of under 18.5 is usually referred to as underweight.
