Body Mass Index (BMI) is a person's weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters. BMI is an inexpensive and easy screening method for weight category—underweight, healthy weight, overweight, and obesity.
While BMI is a useful screening tool, it is not diagnostic of body fatness or health. A trained healthcare provider should perform appropriate health assessments.
