Understanding Your BMI Result
The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a widely used indicator to estimate a healthy body weight based on your height. It provides a simple numeric measure that helps categorize individuals into different weight groups.
While BMI doesn't measure body fat directly, it serves as a useful starting point for identifying potential weight-related health risks. Use the chart below to interpret your result:
| BMI Range | Category | What It Means |
|---|---|---|
| Less than 18.5 | Underweight | You may be below the recommended weight for your height. Consider consulting a healthcare provider for advice. |
| 18.5 – 24.9 | Normal weight | You are within the healthy weight range. Maintain your current lifestyle to support long-term wellness. |
| 25 – 29.9 | Overweight | Your weight is above the recommended range. A balanced diet and regular activity can help you return to a healthier range. |
| 30 and above | Obese | This category may be associated with increased health risks. Consider seeking guidance to develop a personalized plan. |
Note: BMI is a general guideline and may not apply equally to all individuals, especially athletes, children, elderly individuals, or those with high muscle mass. For a more complete health assessment, speak with a professional.
