What is BMI and how is it calculated?
BMI (Body Mass Index) is a measure of body weight relative to height. The formula is: BMI = weight (kg) / height (m)². In imperial units: BMI = (weight (lb) / height (in)²) × 703. The result is a dimensionless number that is categorized into ranges.
What are the BMI categories?
According to the WHO: Underweight = below 18.5, Normal weight = 18.5–24.9, Overweight = 25–29.9, Obese = 30 and above. These are guidelines for adults 18 and older.
Is BMI accurate for everyone?
BMI is a population-level screening tool with known limitations. It can overestimate body fat in muscular individuals (like athletes) and underestimate it in older adults who have lost muscle mass. It also does not account for fat distribution, which affects health risk.
What is a healthy weight for my height?
The tool calculates your healthy weight range based on the Normal weight BMI range (18.5–24.9) for your specific height. This gives you a concrete weight goal rather than just a category label.

Dicas e boas práticas

  • 💡BMI is a screening tool, not a diagnostic measure. A high BMI may indicate excess body fat, but it doesn't account for muscle mass, bone density, or fat distribution.
  • 💡Athletes and very muscular individuals often have a high BMI despite low body fat because muscle is denser than fat.
  • 💡BMI ranges were originally calibrated for adults. Different interpretations may apply for children, the elderly, or specific ethnic populations.
  • 💡A BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 is considered the 'Normal weight' range for most adults according to the WHO.
