What does BMI mean?

Body Mass Index is a quick screening measure estimated from your weight relative to your height: BMI = weight (kg) ÷ height (m)². The World Health Organization categories above apply to most adults aged 20 and over. It is a useful first signal — but it does not distinguish muscle from fat, so athletes often score "overweight" while being perfectly healthy.

Frequently asked questions

Is BMI accurate for everyone?

It is a population-level screening tool, not a diagnosis. It tends to overestimate body fat in muscular people and underestimate it in older adults who have lost muscle. For children, use age- and sex-specific percentile charts instead.

Does this tool store my weight or height?

No. The calculation runs entirely in your browser — your numbers never leave your device.
