Calculate your BMI, BMR, and waist-hip ratio

• BMI (body mass index)

  BMI compares your weight and height. It provides an estimation of body fatness for most people and is used to identify possible weight problems.

  Enter your height and weight into the calculator to determine your BMI.

• Daily calorie requirement (basal metabolic rate)

  Our basal metabolic rate (BMR) calculator can help you determine the number of calories needed to sustain the body and allow vital organs to function.

  The basal metabolic rate does not take the amount of lean body mass into account. For the same weight, an individual who is very muscular would need more calories, while another who has less muscle, but excess fat, would need fewer calories.

• Waist-to-hip ratio

  Studies have shown that individuals with a high waist-to-hip ratio can be an indication of the individual's risk of major health problems such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.

  Enter the circumference of your waist (above the upper waist bone) and hip (at its widest point) into the calculator to determine your waist-to-hip ratio.
