Introduction

Body mass index (BMI)

Body Mass Index (BMI) is used to know the total body fat content. Your weight alone is not enough to identify if you are in a healthy weight range.

For example, a tall but thin person can weigh more than a short but thick individual. But anyone can enjoy their health as long as their weight is suitable for their height. The ideal weight is also likely to differ for men and women of similar heights. BMI calculates your weight with your height and evaluates whether your weight according to your height and age falls under the healthy weight range.

BMI is a reliable tool for establishing risk levels for illnesses, especially ailments related to excess body fat.
