Frequently asked questions

What is a healthy BMI?

For most adults a BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 is considered a healthy range. BMI is a general screening tool, not a diagnosis.

Does BMI work for everyone?

BMI doesn't distinguish muscle from fat, so very muscular people may read as 'overweight'. Treat it as a rough guide and consult a professional for personal advice.

Is my data private?

Yes — the calculation runs entirely in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
