?What is BMI?

Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to adult men and women. It is a simple tool that helps classify a person as underweight, healthy weight, overweight, or obese.

While BMI is a useful general indicator, it does not directly measure body fat percentage. It should be used as a guide alongside other health assessments like waist circumference and physical activity levels.

Weight Categories

Normal Weight (18.5 – 24.9)

Associated with the lowest risk of heart disease and other health conditions.

Overweight (25.0 – 29.9)

May indicate a higher risk for type 2 diabetes and hypertension.

Underweight (< 18.5)

May indicate nutritional deficiencies or an underlying health condition.

Obesity (30.0 or higher)

Significant risk for stroke, heart disease, and sleep apnea.

Important Limitations

BMI may overestimate body fat in athletes and others who have a muscular build. It may underestimate body fat in older persons and others who have lost muscle. If you are pregnant or have a chronic health condition, consult your physician for a personalized health assessment.
