BMI

BMI is the abbreviation for body mass index. The formula for determining body parameters was developed back in the 19th century. Its creator, Adolphe Quetelet, recognised the relationship between body height and body weight, and on the basis of this relationship defined a standard. BMI is therefore a simple mathematical formula that allows us to estimate whether the body weight is correct. For many nutritionists, BMI is the basis for implementation of an appropriate diet.
