i don't think there can be a minium mate because its all depending on height, weight etc. As far as I'm aware along as its in the healthy range then you should be in no problem mate.

the NHS says that 18.5 is "normal weight" and below that is under weight but I think it all depends i doubt it's set in stone.

Hope that helps

I don't know what is required but a healthy BMI to have is between 18.5 and 24.9.
