Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to adult men and women. It is calculated by dividing a person's weight in kilograms by their height in meters squared.
Here is a simple BMI calculator tool that you can use:
Enter your weight in kilograms (kg)
Enter your height in meters (m)
Click "Calculate BMI"
BMI = weight (kg) / height (m)^2
Here is the BMI classification according to the World Health Organization (WHO):
Underweight: BMI < 18.5
Normal weight: 18.5 ≤ BMI < 25
Overweight: 25 ≤ BMI < 30
Obesity: BMI ≥ 30
Please note that the BMI calculation is not a diagnostic tool and should not be used to determine an individual's overall health or fitness. It is also not suitable for athletes, pregnant women, and older adults, as it does not take into account differences in muscle mass, bone density, and distribution of fat. It is important to speak with a healthcare professional for a comprehensive assessment of your health. (full-width)
