About BMI Calculator
The BMI Calculator is a simple health utility designed to calculate your Body Mass Index (BMI) based on your weight and height. BMI is a widely used screening tool to identify weight categories (Underweight, Normal, Overweight, Obese) and potential health risks.
How it Works
Select either Metric or Imperial units. Adjust the height and weight sliders (or type them in). The calculator computes your BMI instantly and displays your category on a colored scale.
Key Features
- Dual Units: Supports Metric (cm/kg) and Imperial (ft-in/lbs).
- Colored Indicator: Visualizes your category on a color scale.
- Health Tips: Displays category descriptions and recommendations.
- Runs Locally: Private health data calculations.
Technical Details
The calculator computes BMI using the standard formula: $BMI = weight(kg) / height(m)^2$. Imperial units are converted to metric first. The category is determined using WHO guidelines: Underweight < 18.5, Normal 18.5-24.9, Overweight 25-29.9, Obese >= 30.
