FAQ

Is ideal body weight a fixed target?

No. Treat it as a planning range, not a strict number. Practical targets should also consider body composition and long-term adherence.

Why are there multiple formulas?

Each formula was built from different populations and goals, so comparing multiple references usually gives a safer planning baseline.

Should I use this instead of BMI?

Use both together. BMI gives broad status context, while ideal body weight formulas add practical target references.

Can this replace medical advice?

No. It is a general health-management reference and not a medical diagnosis or treatment recommendation.
