BMI Calculator - Understanding Your Health Numbers
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple calculation that helps assess whether you're at a healthy weight for your height. Our BMI calculator makes it easy to determine your BMI and understand what the results mean for your overall health.
What is BMI?
BMI is a numerical value calculated from your weight and height. It provides a quick screening tool to identify potential weight problems in adults. The formula is:
BMI = weight(kg) / height²(m²)

Why BMI Matters
Knowing your BMI can help you make informed decisions about your health. While BMI is not a perfect measure (it doesn't account for muscle mass or body composition), it provides a useful starting point for health discussions with your doctor.
Regular BMI monitoring can help you track changes in your body weight relative to your height and take appropriate actions to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
