The Skinny on BMI: Myths, Realities, and Better Options | Episode 17

from The Lift Podcast · host The Lift Podcast

In this lively chat, Simon Matthews and Darren take a closer look at the Body Mass Index (BMI)—a number we all know but may not fully understand. They dig into the surprising history of BMI, why it’s not always a great fit for everyone, and how it can even mess with our minds! Then, they shift gears to the Body Roundness Index (BRI), a fresh alternative that considers body shape and waist size instead of just weight. Along the way, they explore why health is so much more than numbers and why we need to think beyond the scale to really understand our well-being.   Got questions or a topic you'd like us to cover?
