Understanding BMI
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple calculation using a person's height and weight to determine if they are underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese.
📊 What is BMI?
BMI is a screening tool that helps healthcare providers assess whether a person's weight falls within a healthy range for their height. It's calculated by dividing weight in kilograms by height in meters squared.
⚖️ BMI Limitations
BMI doesn't distinguish between muscle and fat mass, so athletes with high muscle mass may have high BMI scores despite being healthy. It's best used as a general screening tool.
🎯 Health Goals
Maintaining a healthy BMI (18.5-24.9) is associated with lower risk of chronic diseases. However, overall health depends on many factors beyond just BMI.
💡 Next Steps
If your BMI is outside the normal range, consider consulting with a healthcare provider for personalized advice on nutrition, exercise, and overall health management.
