What is BMI?

Body Mass Index is a simple screening measure that relates your weight to your height. It's a starting reference point, not a full diagnosis — body composition, muscle mass and other factors affect what a healthy weight looks like for you.

Formula

BMI = weight (kg) / height (m)²

Frequently asked questions

What BMI range is considered healthy?

A BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 is generally classed as a healthy weight range for most adults, though this can vary by individual and population.

Is BMI accurate for everyone?

BMI doesn't distinguish between muscle and fat, so it can be less accurate for athletes or people with higher muscle mass. It's best used as a general guide alongside other health measures.
