BMI and Body Composition Calculation
Body Mass Index (BMI) and body composition analysis are among the first measurement methods used to determine your obesity level.
These values serve as scientific guides to assess whether your weight poses a health risk.
Although BMI is a general measurement, it may be misleading in individuals with high muscle mass. Therefore, clinical decisions are not made based solely on BMI.
Body Composition Analysis
Body composition shows the proportion of fat, muscle, water, and other tissues in your body.
Especially, body fat percentage is an important criterion in determining the risk of obesity and metabolic diseases.
This analysis typically includes the following values:
- Body Fat Percentage (%)
- Lean Body Mass (Muscle + Water)
- Visceral Fat Score (Fat around organs)
- Basal Metabolic Rate (kcal/day)
Warning: It is Not Sufficient on Its Own
These calculations are automatically made through scientific formulas and devices. However:
- Every individual is unique.
- Many factors, such as genetics, hormonal structure, and muscle ratio, come into play.
- Therefore, a doctor’s and nutritionist’s evaluation is necessary for an accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
