I’ve been thinking a lot about BMI recently.
.
The BMI is really flawed and was never intended to be used as a health measure.
Yet, we are still taught the it is the most important measure for health within the first month of studying nutrition.
.
BMI buys into diet culture, telling us that smaller bodies are better, healthier bodies. BMI standards stop us from listening to and relying on our bodies internal cues. BMI stops us from living our healthiest lives. BMI is BS.
