What does BMI tell you?
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple screening tool that compares your weight to your height to estimate whether you fall into a healthy, underweight, overweight, or obese range. It helps identify potential health risks such as heart disease, diabetes, and joint problems linked to excess or low body weight.
How to use your BMI result
Your BMI score can help you understand whether you may need to gain, maintain, or lose weight. If your BMI is higher or lower than the recommended range, making small changes in diet, physical activity, and daily habits can improve your overall well-being.
Remember:
BMI is a useful guideline, but it does not directly measure body fat, muscle mass, or overall fitness. For athletes, older adults, or people with specific medical conditions, BMI should be interpreted along with other health indicators such as waist size, body fat percentage, and medical advice.
What Your BMI Number Means

| 18.5 – 24.9 | Healthy | Ideal weight range for most adults |
| 25 – 29.9 | Overweight | Higher risk of heart disease and metabolic issues |

| 35 – 39.9 | Obese (Class II) | High health risk; medical advice recommended |

*BMI ranges are the same for men and women, but health risks may differ due to body fat distribution, hormones, and muscle mass.
