I would like to see a histogram of worldwide BMI. Are we past the point where world median BMI is over 25?

I am not sure if taking BMI histograms worldwide makes sense. Human populations differ and East Asians tend to suffer from complications of obesity from lower BMIs than the rest of the world [0]. Do it region-wise, if needed.
