About BMI

What is BMI?

Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to adult men and women.

BMI Categories:

Underweight: BMI less than 18.5
Normal weight: BMI 18.5 - 24.9
Overweight: BMI 25 - 29.9
Obesity: BMI 30 or greater

BMI Formula:

BMI = weight(kg) / height(m)²
For imperial: BMI = (weight(lb) / height(in)²) × 703

Limitations:

  • Doesn't account for muscle mass
  • May not be accurate for athletes
  • Doesn't consider body composition
  • May vary by ethnicity
Note: BMI is a screening tool, not a diagnostic measure. Consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
