undervekt

Undervekt, also known as underweight, refers to a body weight that is significantly lower than what is considered healthy for a given height and age. It is typically defined as a body mass index (BMI) below 18.5. Undervekt can be caused by various factors, including poor nutrition, inadequate caloric intake, certain medical conditions, or excessive physical activity. It can lead to a range of health issues, such as weakened immune system, fatigue, nutrient deficiencies, and in severe cases, an increased risk of osteoporosis and other bone-related problems. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and treatment, which may include dietary changes, nutritional supplements, and in some cases, medical interventions.
