How Many People Has BMI on Health Reports Actually Fooled?

The BMI index on health reports is actually a simple formula from over a hundred years ago. Its biggest blind spot is that it can't distinguish between muscle and fat weight. A muscular fitness coach might be labeled 'overweight,' while a 'thin' person with excess body fat shows as normal. The article uses real-life examples to break down BMI's limitations, reminding us to focus on body fat percentage and waist circumference, and not to be comforted or scared by a single number.
