invasive BMI

Invasive BMI, or Body Mass Index, refers to the use of body weight relative to height to categorize individuals as underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese. While traditional BMI is a simple calculation, invasive BMI may involve more advanced methods or technologies that assess body composition, including fat distribution and muscle mass, providing a deeper understanding of health. This approach can reveal risks associated with obesity or underweight that the standard BMI might miss, helping healthcare providers offer more tailored advice for improving health and preventing diseases.
