The Body Mass Index is a rough measure of body fat. It is not very accurate, because it treats all weight - muscle, fat, bone, etc. - the same. However, by taking into account both height and weight, it does provide a single number that can be useful for discussing health risks and desirable targets.
BMI values that are too high or too low are associated with increased risks for many diseases.
BMI values are determined with this formula:
| BMI = ( |
Weight in Pounds (Height in inches) x (Height in inches) |
) x 703 |
Or this one in metric units:
| BMI = ( |
Weight in Kilograms (Height in centimeters) x (Height in centimeters) |
) x 10,000 |
If you would like to find out more about BMI we have provided links to WikiPedia and NHS Choices, both of which have more information available.
