A normal or healthy BMI for adults is between 18.5 and 24.9 kg/m2. Learn how to calculate your BMI below.
BMI (Body Mass Index) charts provide a healthy weight range for an individual based on height, according to University of Maryland Medical Center. BMI, a number determined from your height and weight, is considered healthy if it ranges from 18.5 to 25. For instance, a 6-foot man should we...
Your BMI is within the recommended range* of 18.5 to 24.9. You seem to keep your weight normal. Try to keep your weight in this range and eat a nutritious diet, get adequate sleep and get plenty of exercise in order to maintain your health. You are a healthy w...
Normal weight adiposity was defined as the combination of BMI < 25 kg/m2and percentage body fat ≥35% for women and ≥25% for men. Associations with blood pressure, blood lipids, apolipoproteins and C‐reactive protein were analysed in age‐adjusted regression models. The majority of ...
for overall females of 74 ml/m2 ± 12 (range 54 to 94 ml/m2). We suspect the discrepancy may be due to the different contouring approach, which is an important contribution of our normative data to the current literature. In contrast to some previous studies, our contouring method of...
A recent meta-analysis33 in adults showed a continuous dose-dependent association between BMI and risk of hypertension starting within the normal BMI range. Our study also suggests that a high normal weight below the threshold for overweight is associated with increased hypertension risk in youths. ...
each participant.8,13Neighborhood socioeconomic status (NSES) was assessed by using data from the 2000 US Census at the census tract level, as described in previous publications.14The NSES index was scaled to range from 0 to 100 for census tracts; higher scores indicated more affluent tracts...
Adults aged 60 and older at risk of osteoarthritis (N = 2,210; mean age 68, range 67.1-69.0) were grouped according to BMI (normal 18.5-24.9 kg/m(2) , overweight 25.0-29.9 kg/m(2) , obese ≥30.0 kg/m(2) ). High waist circumference (WC) was defined as greater than 88 cm ...
Knowledge of the range of normal structure and function is required to interpret abnormal cardiac conditions. Thus, the aim of this review is to provide reference intervals (“normal values”) for morphological and functional CMR parameters of the cardiovascular system based on a systematic review of...
