BMI Overview

BMI, or Body Mass Index, is a widely used tool for assessing your weight in relation to your height. It provides a quick and easy way to determine whether you fall into categories such as underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese. Understanding your BMI can be a valuable step in assessing your overall health.

It is an inaccurate measure of body fat content and does not take into account muscle mass, bone density, overall body composition, and racial and sex differences.

Interpretation

Your BMI score can give you a general idea of your weight status, but it’s important to remember that it has limitations. It doesn’t take into account factors such as muscle mass, bone density, or overall body composition. For a more comprehensive understanding of your health, consult with a healthcare professional.
