Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both adult men and women.
BMI Categories:
Our BMI Calculator is meant to be used by parents. Teens and younger children should not use it without adult supervision so that they have someone to discuss the results with. Please remember that since body mass index doesn't actually measure body fat, it is possible to be 'overweight' but not really obese. People who are very muscular might have a high BMI and be classified as overweight, even though they aren't 'fat.' Also, just because you have a healthy BMI doesn't actually mean that you are healthy. If a child is very inactive or has poor eating habits, then they might still be unhealthy even though that have a healthy or normal BMI. Even kids with an eating disorder might have a normal BMI! |
