Formula Used

These formulas are based on standard medical guidelines and may vary slightly depending on your specific age group and gender.

Interpreting Your Results

The calculator provides three key pieces of information:

Minimum healthy weight: The lowest weight considered healthy for your height
Maximum healthy weight: The highest weight considered healthy for your height
Recommended weight range: The ideal range for your specific age and gender

Remember that these are general guidelines. Individual variations may exist, and other factors like muscle mass, body composition, and overall health should also be considered.

If your actual weight falls outside the recommended range, it may indicate that you're underweight or overweight. Consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
