BMI is a screening tool, not a diagnostic measure. It doesn't account for:
- •Muscle mass (athletes may have high BMI but low body fat)
- •Bone density
- •Body fat distribution
- •Age and gender differences in body composition
What to Do Based on Your BMI
Consider talking to a healthcare provider or dietitian to make sure you're getting enough nutrition. Being underweight can lead to nutritional deficiencies, a weakened immune system, and bone loss.
Keep doing what you're doing with balanced meals and regular exercise. Continue monitoring your health markers like blood pressure and cholesterol.
Focus on gradual, sustainable changes to your diet and activity levels. Even losing 5-10% of your weight can significantly improve your health. Talk to healthcare professionals for personalized guidance.
