BMI is a good measure of general metabolic health for 90%+ of the population.
No its really not
It only looks at two things to come to a broad conclusion about your health
A person’s health is not a one size fits all based on one ratio
BMI is an incorrect calculation that doesn’t even take volume into consideration.
BMI = kg/m2 where kg is a person’s weight in kilograms and m2 is their height in metres squared.
The result is that a short person can be pumpkin and be well below BMI 25 while a tall person can be a bean pole and be well above BMI 25.
You could make a valid BMI formula with a cubic factor, but current BMI is just a tool for professional affirmative action bureacrats and educrats to place blame on “obesity” when half the people they claim are obese, aren’t.
