Body Mass Index (BMI)

Definition:

Body Mass Index is a tool that healthcare providers use to estimate the amount of body fat a person has based on their height and weight.

It’s important to note that BMI is an imperfect measure of health, and it can be inaccurate for some people, such as if you’re very muscular or pregnant. But for most people, it serves as a useful tool for getting a general idea of your weight status.
