Frequently Asked Questions
What is BMI and why does it matter?
BMI (Body Mass Index) is a screening tool that uses your height and weight to estimate body fat. It helps identify potential health risks associated with being underweight or overweight.
What is a healthy BMI range?
A healthy BMI is typically between 18.5 and 24.9. Below 18.5 is underweight, 25-29.9 is overweight, and 30+ is considered obese. However, BMI doesn't account for muscle mass or body composition.
Is BMI accurate for everyone?
BMI is a general guideline but has limitations. Athletes with high muscle mass may have higher BMIs despite being healthy. Age, sex, ethnicity, and muscle mass aren't accounted for in standard BMI calculations.

Should I see a doctor about my BMI?
Consult a healthcare provider if your BMI is below 18.5 or above 30, or if you have concerns about your weight. BMI is just one health indicator - professional medical advice is always recommended.
