Understanding BMI
What is BMI?
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple calculation using a person's height and weight. The formula is BMI = kg/m² where kg is a person's weight in kilograms and m² is their height in meters squared.
BMI provides a reasonable estimate of body fat for most people and is used to screen for weight categories that may lead to health problems.
