Frequently asked questions
What is a healthy BMI?
The World Health Organization defines 18.5–24.9 as the healthy range for adults.
Is BMI accurate for athletes?
Not always — BMI can't tell muscle from fat, so very muscular people may score high despite being fit. Treat it as a screening tool, not a diagnosis.
Should I see a doctor about my BMI?
If your BMI is outside the healthy range and you're concerned, a healthcare professional can give personalized advice.
