Square Study
BSI: Body Square Index
Background: BMI / Body Mass Index
The body mass index is a heuristic proxy for human body fat.
The formula describes the individual's bodymass divided by the square of his/her weightWhile the formula previously called the Quetelet Index for BMI dates to the 19th century, the new term body mass index for the ratio and its popularity date to a paper published in the July editi-on of 1972 in the Journal of Chronic Diseases by Ancel Keys, which found the BMI to be the best proxy for body fat percentage among ratios of weight and height; the interest in measuring body fat being due to obesity becoming a discernible issue in prosperous Western societies.
BMI was explicitly cited by Keys as being appropriate for populati-on studies, and inappropriate for individual diagnosis. Neverthel-ess, due to its simplicity, it came to be widely used for individual diagnosis, despite its inappropriateness.
BMI provided a simple numeric measure of a person's thickness or thinness, allowing health professionals to discuss over- and under-weight problems more objectively with their patients.
