About Health tools

Health tools estimate everyday metrics: BMI, basal metabolic rate and daily calorie needs. BMI divides weight in kilograms by squared height in metres. BMR comes from the Mifflin-St Jeor formula, and daily needs scale it by an activity multiplier. Results include interpretation ranges, not just one bare number.

The estimates are reasonable references for most adults, but they do not replace medical advice. An athlete's muscle mass inflates BMI, and pregnancy or illness calls for professional assessment. Inputs are used for the current calculation only, nothing is saved or uploaded, and height and weight stay on your device.

How to choose the right Health

1. Check which formula is cited

   BMR formulas differ, and older ones drift further from measured values. This category uses Mifflin-St Jeor, the current consensus choice, and states it on the page.

2. Read BMI with body composition

   BMI only sees height and weight, not muscle versus fat. A high BMI in trained people is not automatically overweight; use waist ratio alongside.

3. Be honest about activity level

   Three to five workouts a week maps to moderate activity. Overstating it inflates your calorie target, and a cutting plan quietly stops working.

4. Health data never leaves home

   Height and weight are personal health information and do not belong on unknown servers. These tools compute locally with zero upload, and nothing persists after you close the page.

Common health mistakes

1. BMI has the final word

   BMI cannot tell muscle from fat, so athletes are often mislabelled. Treat it as a first screen and read it with waist and body fat.

2. Calorie formulas fit everyone

   Formulas are fitted to populations; individual metabolism varies by around twenty percent. Use the estimate as a start and calibrate with two weeks of trends.

3. Tool output is a diagnosis

   These calculators estimate and explain, nothing more. See a doctor for abnormal or persistent findings.
