What is BMI, and why is it useful?

The body mass index, or BMI, is a simple way for men and women to estimate body fat based on their height and weight. From BMI, it is possible to determine your healthy weight range.

What is BMI, and why is it useful?

For the majority of Americans, the BMI is the most up to date and scientifically accurate method available for determining healthy weight. One of the major limitations of BMI is that it often over-predicts overweight or obesity in people who are lean and muscular.

It is very important to know that people who may be classified as overweight or obese can still be healthy as long as they are fit. It has even been proven in scientific studies that fit people with BMI’s that classified them as overweight were healthier and lived longer than unfit people who were at normal weight. Interesting eh?
