⚖️ What is BMI

Body Mass Index (BMI) shows how your weight relates to your height. It is a quick guide to underweight, normal weight, or overweight.

The calculator takes weight in kilograms and height in centimeters, then maps the result to the WHO international scale.

📐 Formula and categories

BMI = Weight (kg) / (Height (m))²
  • Below 18.5 — underweight
  • 18.5–24.9 — normal weight
  • 25–29.9 — overweight
  • 30 and above — obesity

💡 Example

At 70 kg and 175 cm:

BMI = 70 / 1.75² = 70 / 3.06 ≈ 22.9 — normal weight.

✅ Tips

  • BMI does not account for muscle mass, age, or fat distribution — athletes may score higher.
  • Children, older adults, and pregnant people use different reference ranges.
  • For an accurate health assessment, consult a doctor.
