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. It's calculated by dividing weight in kilograms by height in meters squared.
BMI Formula:
- Metric: BMI = weight (kg) / [height (m)]²
- Imperial: BMI = [weight (lb) / height (in)²] × 703
Important Notes:
- BMI is a screening tool and not a diagnostic measure of body fatness or health
- Athletes and very muscular individuals may have high BMI despite low body fat
- BMI may not accurately reflect health risks for older adults
- Always consult with healthcare professionals for personalized health advice
