Body Mass Index (BMI) is a commonly used measure to assess body weight relative to height. For healthy adults, a BMI of 18.5 to 24.9 is generally considered normal for both men and women. However, factors such as muscle mass, distribution of fat, and overall health can influence the relationship between BMI and health, making it important to consider other assessments alongside BMI when evaluating health. Additionally, BMI categories may not accurately reflect the health of all individuals, particularly those with higher muscle mass or different body compositions.
