Understanding Anorexia and the Importance of BMI Awareness
The **Anorexic BMI Calculator** is a valuable tool designed to help identify individuals who may be at risk of being severely underweight, which could indicate an eating disorder such as anorexia nervosa.
BMI (Body Mass Index) is a simple yet effective indicator of whether a person’s weight is in a healthy range for their height. While BMI alone cannot diagnose a medical condition, it can serve as a helpful screening tool for potential health concerns — especially when extreme low weight is involved.
This calculator uses standard BMI thresholds to assess body weight:
- Severely Underweight: BMI < 16.5
- Underweight: BMI 16.5–18.4
- Normal Weight: BMI 18.5–24.9
- Overweight: BMI 25–29.9
- Obese: BMI ≥ 30
A BMI below 16.5 is considered a red flag and may suggest malnutrition or an eating disorder. If you or someone you know falls into this category, it is strongly recommended to seek professional medical advice.
This calculator supports both metric (kg/cm) and US units (lbs/inches), making it accessible to users worldwide. It is not meant to replace medical diagnosis but to raise awareness and encourage early intervention.
Early detection of unhealthy weight loss can make a significant difference in treatment outcomes. Use this free online tool responsibly, and always consult with a healthcare provider for accurate assessment and guidance.
