The "body mass index" is calculated according to your height and weight. Body mass index (BMI) is an internationally recognized grading method for evaluating the degree of obesity, and the World Health Organization (WHO) also uses BMI to define obesity or overweight.
At present, the body mass index value is only a reference value. In order to truly measure whether a patient is obese, it is necessary to measure the patient's impedance by micro-electricity, so as to infer the patient's fat thickness. Therefore, the role of body mass index has gradually changed, from medical use to mass weight loss index.
