Frequently Asked Questions

Is BMI an accurate measure of health?

BMI is a useful screening tool but doesn't account for muscle mass, bone density, or body composition. Athletes may have a high BMI due to muscle, not excess fat.

What is a healthy BMI range?

According to the WHO, a BMI of 18.5-24.9 is considered normal weight. Below 18.5 is underweight, 25-29.9 is overweight, and 30+ indicates obesity.

Does this work for children?

This calculator uses adult BMI categories. Children and teens require age-and-gender-specific BMI percentiles, which this tool does not provide.
