⚖️ BMI Calculator

Calculate your Body Mass Index and find your healthy weight range.

Understanding BMI

Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple calculation using a person's height and weight. The formula is: BMI = weight (kg) / height² (m²). It provides a general indication of whether your weight is healthy for your height.

While BMI is a useful screening tool, it doesn't directly measure body fat and doesn't account for muscle mass, bone density, age, sex, or ethnicity. Athletes may have a high BMI despite low body fat. Always consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
