Consejos y buenas prácticas
- 💡BMI is a population-level screening tool, not a definitive health diagnosis. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalised advice.
- 💡If you are tracking BMI over time, weigh yourself at the same time of day (ideally morning, before eating) for consistent readings.
- 💡For a more complete picture of health risk, combine BMI with waist circumference — central obesity is a stronger predictor of cardiovascular risk than BMI alone.
