About BMI
What is BMI?
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple calculation using a person's height and weight. The formula is BMI = kg/m² where kg is a person's weight in kilograms and m² is their height in metres squared.
BMI is a useful measure of overweight and obesity. It is calculated the same way for both adults and children. However, it is interpreted differently for children.
Important Considerations
BMI is a screening tool and not a diagnostic tool. It doesn't directly measure body fat or muscle mass, so it may not be accurate for athletes or people with high muscle mass.
Always consult with healthcare professionals for a comprehensive health assessment. BMI should be used alongside other health indicators.
Important Health Notice
- • BMI is not a diagnostic tool and should be used in conjunction with other health assessments
- • Consult with your healthcare provider for personalized health advice
- • BMI may not be accurate for athletes, pregnant women, or elderly individuals
- • Consider other factors like muscle mass, bone density, and overall health
- • If you're taking GLP-1 medications, discuss BMI goals with your healthcare provider
