Body Mass Index

 

The Body Mass Index is a medical measure of a typically healthy weight range for people taking into consideration their height and gender.

Your Weight (kg): OR weight in pounds:
Your height (cm): OR height Feet: Inches:
BODY MASS INDEX (BMI):

                                             

What does the Body Mass Index mean?

 

The Body Mass Index is not the only indicator of health risk.

The Body Mass Index is just one of many factors related to developing a chronic disease (such as heart disease, cancer, or diabetes). Other factors that may be important to look at when assessing your risk for chronic disease include:

  • diet

  • physical activity

  • waist circumference

  • blood pressure

  • blood sugar level

  • cholesterol level

  • family history of disease
