Description

BMI (Body Mass Index) is a measurement of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both men and women between the ages of 18 and 65 years.

BMI or Body Mass Index is a globally acknowledged scientific method of measuring obesity. Recommended by the WHO (World Health Organization) it is a simple index of weight-for-height, which is used to classify underweight, normal, overweight and obese adults along with their level of associated health risks.

BMI can be used to indicate if you are overweight, obese, underweight or normal. A healthy BMI score is between 20 and 25. A score below 20 indicates that you may be underweight; a value above 25 indicates that you may be overweight.

You can calculate your BMI by using our BMI Calculator below or by using the BMI Formula.

It is calculated by dividing the weight in kilograms by the square of an individuals height in meters.

Please remember, that this is only one of many possible ways to assess your weight. If you have any concerns about your weight, please discuss them with us, unlike this BMI calculator to address your specific individual situation.

Obesity is defined as a BMI of 30.0 kg/m or greater. People with BMIs of 30 kg/m or more are at higher risk of cardiovascular diseases. Extreme obesity is defined as a BMI of 40 kg/m or greater.Some well-trained people with dense muscle mass may have a high BMI score but very little body fat.
