❓ Gereeld Gestelde Vrae (FAQ)
What is a healthy BMI?
According to WHO (World Health Organization) guidelines, a healthy BMI for most adults is between 18.5 and 24.9.
Is BMI correct for athletes?
Because muscle weighs more than fat, BMI may overstate the body fat of athletes and bodybuilders. Use body fat percentage for a clearer understanding.
Does BMI change for children?
Yes BMI for children and adolescents is not recorded as a range, but as a percentile of age- and gender-specific growth charts.
