FAQ

Questions we expect

How do I calculate BMI?

Divide weight in kilograms by height in metres squared, or use the BMI calculator.

What BMI is considered healthy for adults?

Many public-health charts use 18.5–24.9. Individual context still matters — see limitations.

Does BMI work if I lift weights?

Often poorly. Muscle raises the index. Pair it with waist and performance, not the number alone.

How many calories should I eat?

Start with the calorie calculator. It estimates need; it does not assign a crash target.

What foods are anti-inflammatory?

Leafy greens, extra-virgin olive oil, oily fish, berries, nuts, legumes. Details in the foods article.

Do you publish calorie-aware recipes?

Yes. Start with the meal framework and weeknight dinners. They are templates, not a crash diet.

I have knee or lower-back stiffness. Where do I start?

Read gentle knee mobility or lower-back stiffness at home. Stop if pain shoots, swells, or follows a fall — see a clinician first.

Do you store my measurements?

No. See privacy.
