BMI Calculator

Our BMI calculator, located at the bottom of this page, lets you determine your Body Mass Index to assess if your weight is in a healthy range.  BMI calculators provide an exact measurement, and a better indicator of healthy weight range than a height and weight chart.  The Body Mass Index on this page is for adults, not children. 

BMI calculators provide a Body Mass Index that is likely to change as you grow older. But, the healthy BMI range for adults also changes with age.  A sixty year old  is not likely to have the body shape, muscle mass or weight as a twenty year old.   To adjust for age factors, it is permissible to add one point to your healthy BMI for every decade beginning at age 45.

BMI calculator standards are set by WHO -  the World Health Organization.  The current BMI standards are included in our calculator.  A BMI of 25 - 29.9 is considered overweight and a BMI over 30 is considered obese.  These standards have change over time and may change again.
