Not consuming a balanced diet can lead to ill health.
Body mass index (BMI) is calculated from a person’s height and body mass.
Not consuming enough food can cause BMI to become too low, and eventually lead to starvation.
Deficiency diseases are the result of not consuming enough of a particular nutrient.
