BMI AND BMR

(BMI) Body Mass Index - measure of body fat based on height and weight
Formula:

💡 (weight in pounds / (height in inch x height in inch) x 703

UNDERWEIGHT = <18.5
NORMAL WEIGHT = 18.5 - 24.9

M5: PHYSICAL DOMAIN 1

 OVERWEIGHT = 25 - 29.9
OBESE = ≥ 30

(BMR) Basal Metabolic Rate - amount of energy per unit of time that person needs to
keep the body functioning
Formula: Harris Benedict

EX: A 42 year old woman, weighing 188

pounds and is 5’4 (64 inches)

655 + (4.35 x 188 pounds) + (4.7 x

64 inches) - (4.7 x age)

655 + (817.8) + (300.8) - (197.4)

BMR = 1576.2

DISADVANTAGES OF TOO MUCH WEIGHT

1. Increase risk of lifestyle diseases - heart attack, diabetes, hypertension, etc

2. Breathing troubles

3. Unwanted strain to the heart, liver, kidney, joints

4. Risk of developing gallstones

5. Atherosclerosis - hardeing of the arterial wall
