Frequently Asked Questions

Is a BMI of 22.6 considered healthy?

For adults, BMI categories are standardized. Your result falls in the normal range. Use this as a screening signal, then pair it with waist and body-fat metrics for better individual context.

What weight range usually maps to a "normal" BMI at 66"?

At 66" (about 168 cm), the normal-BMI band is roughly 115-154 lb.

Should I use BMI alone to make decisions?

BMI is helpful for broad risk stratification, but it does not separate fat from muscle. Combine it with body-fat percentage, waist measurements, and trend data over time.
