Body Mass Index (BMI)

Enter your measurements to calculate your BMI and understand what it means for your health.

Understanding BMI Categories

What your BMI number means and what health risks are associated with each range.

< 18.5

Underweight

May indicate nutritional deficiency, eating disorder, or underlying health condition. Associated with weakened immunity and bone density issues.

18.5–24.9

Normal Weight

Healthy range associated with the lowest risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and other metabolic conditions. Focus on maintaining with balanced diet and exercise.

25–29.9

Overweight

Increased risk of heart disease, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes. Lifestyle modifications including diet and exercise can effectively reduce risk.

≥ 30

Obese

Significantly elevated risk for multiple serious health conditions. Medical supervision is strongly recommended for weight management and metabolic health.

⚠ BMI Limitations: BMI does not account for muscle mass, bone density, fat distribution, age, or ethnicity. Athletes may have high BMI due to muscle. Older adults may have normal BMI but still carry excess fat. Always use BMI alongside other measurements like waist circumference and body fat percentage.

💥 What is BMR?

Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the number of calories your body needs at complete rest — just to maintain basic functions like breathing, circulation, and cell production. It forms the foundation for calculating your total daily energy expenditure (TDEE).

🎯 What is Ideal Body Weight?

Ideal Body Weight (IBW) is an estimate of the optimal weight for a given height and gender, based on the Devine formula. It's used clinically to calculate drug dosages and nutritional requirements and serves as a useful target for weight management goals.
