What is BMI and Why Does It Matter?

BMI (Body Mass Index) is a simple formula that uses height and weight to estimate body fat.
It is widely used in health assessments to categorize individuals as underweight, normal, overweight, or obese.

Formula

BMI = weight (kg) ÷ [height (m)]²

Example:
70kg ÷ (1.75²) = 22.9 (Normal Weight)
