SE = standard error. BMI = body mass index. Sample weights were incorporated to adjust the percentage estimates in NHES-V sample for unequal probabilities of selection. BMI categories were: underweight (BMI < 18.5 kg/m^2), normal (18.5 ≤ BMI < 25), overweight (25 ≤ BMI < 30), and obese (BMI ≤ 30). Estimates for overall population and by sex, BMI, religion, educational level, geography, and region were age-standardized using five-year categories between 20–70+ using the 2010 Thai Census population estimates.
