About BMI
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight. It can help indicate if you're at a healthy weight.
BMI Categories:
- Underweight: Below 18.5
- Healthy Weight: 18.5 - 24.9
- Overweight: 25.0 - 29.9
- Obesity (Class I): 30.0 - 34.9
- Obesity (Class II): 35.0 - 39.9
- Obesity (Class III): 40.0 and above
Special Considerations:
- BMI may overestimate body fat in athletes and those with muscular builds
- BMI may underestimate body fat in older persons or those who have lost muscle mass
- Different ethnic groups may have different BMI thresholds for health risks
