The BMI percentile is a measure used to compare an individual's body mass index (BMI) to a population of the same age and sex. It indicates the relative position of a person's BMI among their peers, showing what percentage of the population has a lower BMI. For example, a BMI percentile of 75 means that the individual has a higher BMI than 75% of their peers. This tool is often used in pediatric assessments to monitor growth and weight status in children and adolescents.
For an adult, a BMI -- or body mass index -- of 25 is overweight while a BMI of 30 or more is obese. For children it varies by age.
All children are different in BMI. It's important to talk to your child's pediatrician to find out if your child is overweight. If so, your doctor can put her on a nutritional diet.
Although the BMI formula for adults and children is the same, the way the results are interpreted differ. Therefore, what is considered a healthy BMI also differs. For adults, an ideal BMI is between 18.5 and 24.9. A person with a BMI over 24.9 is considered overweight. A person with a BMI under 18.5 is considered underweight.
many schools are able to take your child's BMI for a test required to pass for their PE class. You can take her weight and her height and look it up on a chart for a faster answer.
