How it works
BMI (Body Mass Index) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to adult men and women.
Formula: BMI = weight (kg) / [height (m)]²
BMI Categories:
- Underweight: BMI less than 18.5
- Normal weight: BMI 18.5 to 24.9
- Overweight: BMI 25 to 29.9
- Obese: BMI 30 or greater
What is a healthy BMI?
A healthy BMI for adults is typically between 18.5 and 24.9. However, BMI doesn't account for muscle mass, bone density, or overall body composition.
Is BMI accurate?
BMI is a useful screening tool but has limitations. It doesn't distinguish between muscle and fat, and may not be accurate for athletes, elderly, or pregnant women.
