Measuring Body Mass Index (BMI) is a key health indicator for women, reflecting body fat based on height and weight. It helps assess potential weight-related health risks and provides insights for personalized nutrition and fitness plans.
The formula for calculating BMI for women is: BMI = weight (kg) / [height (m)]2. This equation was developed by Belgian statistician Adolphe Quetelet in the 19th century, initially intended for statistical analysis of large populations.
