Are BMI calculators full of crap?? - average bmi world
Hey, I wonder, the BMI calculator are full of shit? They measure your weight, height and age and compare it with people of similar age and height, to see how it compares your weight. "Healthy" is when your weight is above average. With the average person is overweight, and our country and the world, including poor nutrition and more and more to death, would it not be better to move closer to the mean?
Why should it be based on the average of the other? Is not that the doctors have measured a different route to health? If you have a father, mother and brother of overweight and obesity, are actually a normal weight for their size, it would be fair to say that you are healthy, because werern't "normal" for your family?
I am very confused!

They are based on the average of the current population, but more than half of what they should weigh. That is, littered with garbage. If you take two people to have two the same size, same weight, and the same age and sex. However, it is a person, more muscular and the other has more fat. Muscle weighs more than fat, so it seems that you have a higher BMI, although the healthier of the two.
ReplyDeleteIt is supposedly based on life expectancy, say those with a BMI of 18.5-24.9 had a life, but studies now show the opposite. The problem is that the BMI does not take into account gender, age, taking size, muscle mass or fat will be distributed as.
ReplyDeleteIM not sure how they're pretty much agree, but that I am up to 5 mint no lie in the obese, and it is my dr. as I said before 2 weeks I have cried, losing only 30 pounds. I wear a size 13 is now exacly know little or nothing, and I know I am overweight but not morbidly obese, that I am by what my doctor says, haha
ReplyDeletenot on the basis of population. It is based on a healthy adult support. " This means that from what should look like the average person. BMI is an estimate and not necessarily on the "T" was used. Everything depends on body shape, bone density, etc.
ReplyDeleteBMI in order not based on the current pop and not by the amount of fat (if we get little or no movement), based on the size and weight, age has little effect. . They are generally the innaccurate tried it, your fitness and health, lmao, with puzzles.
ReplyDeleteI must say that is well above the average (if your on lol) not close to him. You must use the heart rate, blood pressure and blood sugar and tell your health. Obesity is a silly word, taking account of more muscle than fat (not to say that the average American is a lot of muscle-CUS lmao this is not true), but a guard of 300 pounds in the NFL is not big, but it is Your blood pressure is still 120 / 60 for what would have nothing to fear.
, Should the parties concerned their physical examinations. What the family is correct.
The body is unhealthy lack of balance and form. The family would be out of shape and it would be healthy.
