BMI calculation ruler<\/h2>\n

The BMI or Body Mass Index assesses a person’s corpulence to estimate the risk of diseases due to excess or insufficient weight (cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, diabetes). To do this, divide the weight by the height squared.<\/p>\n

In general, the BMI is calculated for people between the ages of 18 and 65. Children are therefore not affected by this measure.\n<\/p><\/div>\n
