What is BMI? How to Calculate BMI?

What is BMI?

Body Mass Index(BMI) is a calculated value used to determine the degree of obesity, the higher the BMI, the higher the risk of obesity-related diseases.

But how to calculate BMI? Let’s take a look!

How to Calculate BMI?

BMI = Weight(kg) ➗ Height²(m²)

The World Health Organization(WHO) recommends the Body Mass Index (BMI) to measure the degree of obesity.

The calculation method of BMI is “weight (kg) ÷ height² (meter²) “.

The calculation formulas for men and women are the same. Generally, the posture of adults over 18 years old is divided according to BMI: Too light (BMI <18.5)
Healthy weight (18.5≤BMI <24)
Overweight (24≤BMI <27) and obesity (BMI≥27)

However, because the ethnicity of each country is different, the standards will also be different.

In addition, different genders and different ages have different BMI standards.
