EXPLANATION OF YOUR BMI RESULTS
What is BMI?
Before interpreting the results, remember that when you calculate your BMI you get a general estimate based on the weight–height relationship.
What is: a simple calculation (weight in kg / height in m²) used to classify the weight-height relationship in adults.
What is not: It does not measure actual body fat, does not show adipose tissue distribution, does not assess muscle mass, bone density, or physical condition.
Individual variability: People with the same BMI can have very different body profiles. In athletes, pregnant women, older adults, or people with high muscle mass, BMI may not accurately reflect their body composition.
Correct interpretation of the BMI calculation
Population indicator: BMI compares your weight–height ratio with statistical ranges.
Without diagnosis: by itself, it does not confirm or rule out health conditions.
Useful complements: perimeters (waist, hips), percentage of fat and muscle, and tissue distribution provide a more complete picture of the body.
