A member asked:

If i am now an underweight person, how to become healthy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

ARE you healthy?: "ideal weight" is subscience and entertainment. A man needs no body fat, a woman only a little. If you are light-framed, maintaining a steady weight, can keep up in sports, feel well, are working and playing effectively, and are happy generally with yourself, chances are you're fine. Justin bieber isn't complaining.
