BMI vs. Body Fat

from Wellness Why · host Chelsea Rice & Sophie Rambaud

Chelsea and Sophie discuss the history and differences between BMI and Body Fat. In short- BMI was not created for clinical use and gives you zero information on your body composition, whereas taking one's body fat does, but one needs specific tools and it is not timely in the medical setting. Sophie also dives into different ways of measuring body fat percentage. Food for Thought→ No food for thought today - we had to go… haha. But actually this is your reminder that the BMI your doctor may tell you isn’t the law of your body. Figuring out your body composition is more informative of your body.
