Calculate Your BMI
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight.
Understanding Your BMI
BMI is a screening tool that indicates whether a person is underweight, healthy weight, overweight, or obese.
BMI Categories:
| BMI Range | Category | Health Risk |
|---|---|---|
| Below 18.5 | Underweight | Possible nutritional deficiency |
| 18.5 - 24.9 | Normal weight | Low risk |
| 25.0 - 29.9 | Overweight | Moderate risk |
| 30.0 and above | Obese | High risk |
Limitations of BMI
BMI doesn't account for muscle mass, bone density, or fat distribution. Athletes may have a high BMI without being overweight.
