Hey


Thebody mass index(BMI), orQuetelet index, is a measure for human body shape based on an individual's mass and height. It was devised between 1830 and 1850 by the belgianpolymathadolphequeteletduring the course of developing "social physics".Body mass index is defined as the individual's body mass divided by the square of their height. The formulae universally used in medicine produce a unit of measureof kg/m2. BMI can also be determined using a BMI chart,which displays BMI as a function of mass (horizontal axis) and height (vertical axis) using contour lines for different values of BMI or colors for different BMI categories.

body mass index is bmi
it is used to determine whether an adult is undernourished or not it is calculated by weight by the square of height
if it is less than 18.5 then the person is undernourished and if it is more than 25 than it is overweight
