1. About BMIBox
BMIBox is an educational website that helps adults understand body mass index, BMI calculations, BMI categories, BMI charts, healthy weight information, and the limitations of BMI.
BMIBox is not a healthcare provider, medical clinic, diagnostic service, or substitute for professional medical care.
2. Educational Use Only
All information provided on BMIBox is intended for general educational and informational purposes.
BMIBox content does not provide:
- Medical advice
- Diagnosis
- Treatment recommendations
- Personalized health assessments
- Nutrition plans
- Weight-loss programs
- Emergency medical support
You should not rely on BMIBox as the only basis for making medical, nutritional, fitness, or treatment decisions.
Speak with a qualified healthcare professional if you have concerns about your BMI, weight, symptoms, medical history, or overall health.
3. BMI Calculator
The BMIBox calculator estimates body mass index using information entered by the user, such as height and weight.
The result is based on a mathematical formula and standard adult BMI categories. It is provided for general education and screening purposes only.
BMI does not directly measure:
- Body fat
- Muscle mass
- Waist size
- Bone density
- Fitness level
- Body fat distribution
- Medical history
- Overall health
Calculator results may be affected by incorrect entries, rounding, unit selection, pregnancy, age, body composition, muscle mass, and other individual factors.
BMIBox does not guarantee that a calculator result is complete, medically appropriate, or suitable for your individual circumstances.
4. Adult Use
BMIBox primarily provides information about adult BMI.
Standard adult BMI categories are generally not intended for children or teenagers, who may require age- and sex-specific growth assessments.
Parents and guardians should consult an appropriate qualified healthcare professional before using BMI information to assess a child’s health or development.
5. No Professional Relationship
Using BMIBox, reading its content, subscribing to its newsletter, or contacting us does not create a doctor-patient, dietitian-client, therapist-client, or other professional healthcare relationship.
