Answer:

Generally, Body Mass Index (BMI) changes significantly with age. ... This increase in BMI occurs after it reaches its minimum point which is called "adiposity" rebound. If the calculated BMI figure is less than 18.5 then the person would be conidered under nourished. Hence, the BDI is not applicable to growing children.
