Frequently asked questions

What is a healthy BMI?

For most adults, a BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 is considered healthy. Below 18.5 is underweight, and 25 or above is overweight.

How is BMI calculated?

BMI equals your weight in kilograms divided by your height in metres squared (kg/m²).

Is BMI accurate for everyone?

BMI is a useful screening tool but doesn't measure body fat directly. Very muscular people can have a high BMI without excess fat.
