– Why do doctors care so much about your BMI when it’s has been proven to be such a flawed metric for ones actual health?
In: 0
BMI is a pretty good metric for most people, it’s just thrown off by people with abnormal amounts of muscle. If you are not a person with a huge amount of muscle, it’s probably a fairly good indicator of your overall health.
I also think you are probably overestimating how much doctors care about your BMI, when they have so many other more precise metrics to corroborate it.
