HE4LTH - Smart Body Mass Index

HE4LTH is a physical health application that takes into account five different factors: your height, weight, gender, waist circumference and your age to calculate four indicators - Body Mass Index (BMI), waist to height ratio (WHtR), approximate body fat percentage (to get exact fat percentage you need medical tools) and Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR). In practice, BMR means the minimum amount of energy expenditure at rest - the energy you use if doing nothing. Finding this out can help you plan diets etc.The official body-mass index (BMI) has been found to be lacking in accuracy in many cases. For example if you have a lot of muscle mass or high bone density (or both) the BMI can faultily label you as obese. This is where waist to height ratio comes in - combining these two calculations with your gender and age we try to assess what makes up your BMI. This application has been created for you to have a more accurate estimate of your physical health, among other useful information.
