Frequently Asked Questions
BMI (Body Mass Index) is a measure of body fat based on weight and height. Formula: weight (kg) ÷ height (m)². It's used to screen for weight categories that may lead to health problems.
A healthy BMI for adults is between 18.5 and 24.9. Below 18.5 is underweight, 25–29.9 is overweight, 30–34.9 is obese class I, 35–39.9 is class II, and 40+ is class III.
BMI is a general indicator but may not be accurate for athletes, pregnant women, elderly, or people with high muscle mass. It doesn't distinguish between muscle and fat. Consult a doctor for personalized advice.
Use formula: BMI = weight (kg) ÷ [height (m)]². Example: 70 kg, 1.7 m height: BMI = 70 ÷ (1.7 × 1.7) = 70 ÷ 2.89 = 24.22. This is normal weight.
BMI categories are the same for adult men and women. However, women typically have higher body fat percentage than men at the same BMI. Body fat % is a better measure of health than BMI alone.
For children (2–19 years), BMI is calculated the same way but interpreted using BMI percentile charts specific to age & gender. Consult a pediatrician for accurate assessment.
