BMI doesn't distinguish between muscle and fat mass. Athletes may have high BMI due to muscle.

Age Considerations

BMI ranges may vary with age. Older adults might benefit from slightly higher BMI for bone health.

Ethnic Variations

Different ethnic groups may have varying health risks at the same BMI levels.

Health Beyond BMI

Overall health includes diet quality, exercise, genetics, and mental well-being, not just BMI.
