¿Qué es el IMC
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a number calculated from a person’s weight and height. BMI is a reliable indicator of body fatness for people. BMI does not measure body fat directly, but research has shown that BMI correlates to direct measures of body fat, such as underwater weighing and dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA).

BMI can be considered an alternative for direct measures of body fat. Additionally, BMI is an inexpensive and easy-to-perform method of screening for weight categories that may lead to health problems.
¿Cómo se utiliza el IMC
BMI is used as a screening tool to identify possible weight problems for adults. However, BMI is not a diagnostic tool. For example, a person may have a high BMI. However, to determine if excess weight is a health risk, a healthcare provider would need to perform further assessments. These assessments might include skinfold thickness measurements, evaluations of diet, physical activity, family history, and other appropriate health screenings.
Actividad Física punta
The ideal level of activity is at least 30 minutes of moderate activity on five or more days a week, or at least 20 minutes of vigorous activity on three or more days a week.
La ingesta de punta
Experts recommend eating 5 to 9 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Try to eat a variety of different colored fruits and vegetables daily, especially darker green and yellow/orange choices. Fresh, frozen, chilled, canned, dried, and 100% fruit and vegetables juice all count. But limit or avoid fruits or vegetables that are high in added fat, sugar or salt.

¿Qué es un percentil
After BMI is calculated for children and teens, the BMI number is plotted on the CDC BMI-for-age growth charts (for either girls or boys) to obtain a percentile ranking. Percentiles are the most commonly used indicator to assess the size and growth patterns of individual children in the United States. The percentile indicates the relative position of the child’s BMI number among children of the same sex and age. The growth charts show the weight status categories used with children and teens (underweight, healthy weight, at risk of overweight, and overweight). Click
