About Baby Bmi
About the Body Mass Index (BMI)Body mass index is defined as the individual's body weight divided by the square of his or her height. According to Wikipedia, The body mass index (BMI) is a controversial statistical measurement which compares a person's weight and height. It does not actually measure the percentage of body fat - instead, it is used to estmate body fat based on a person's weight and height. Since the Body Mass index is an estimate based on the "average" body type, the calculation often produces misleading and erroneous results. For this reason, many argue that the error in BMI is so significant that it is not generally useful in health evaluation. Still, despite its shortcomings, the BMI remains in widespread use today mainly due to its ease of use. |
