What is BMI?

BMI (Body Mass Index) is a simple measure of body fat based on height and weight. It applies to adult men and women and is used worldwide as a screening tool for weight-related health risks.

BMI Formula

BMI = Weight (kg) Γ· HeightΒ² (mΒ²). For example, if you weigh 70 kg and are 1.75 m tall: BMI = 70 Γ· (1.75 Γ— 1.75) = 22.9

Limitations of BMI

BMI does not account for muscle mass, bone density, age, or gender differences. Athletes may have high BMI due to muscle, not fat. Always consult a doctor for a complete health assessment.
