BMI Calculator

This BMI calculator will help you determine your approximate Body Mass Index (BMI), which is a measure of body fat. It's a good indicator of the load being placed on your cardiovascular system.

Calculate Your BMI

Body mass index (BMI) is a estimate of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both adult men and women. While BMI does not measure body fat directly, it is a fairly reliable indicator of body fat levels for most people. It is a quick and easy-to-perform test that can be used for mass screening.

BMI is used as a screening tool to identify adults with weight problems. A high BMI score could indicate further health problems. Anyone with a high BMI should undergo further assessments to determine if the excess weight is a health risk.

Overweight and obese individuals are at increased risk for many diseases and health conditions such as: Coronary Heart Disease, Stroke, Hypertension, Diabetes, Dyslipidemia, and some Cancers. BMI also allows you to compare your own results to that of the general population.

The biggest drawback with using the Body Mass Index is that athletes may have a high BMI because of increased muscle mass rather than excess body fat. As a result, some individuals may have a high BMI but not have a high percentage of body fat.

The most accurate way to determine levels of body fat is using the underwater weighing method. However, underwater weighing is not a practical method to screen large numbers of people. Using a calculator is a good alternative.
