BMI is a poor indicator of lean body mass because obesity is referred to as excess accumulation of body fat. BMI also does not tell us about the predominant fat accumulation location. Central fat, or accumulation of fat in our waist area, is more associated with bad outcomes including an increased risk of heart disease and stroke.

Additional Body Fat Estimation Methods

BMI is only one way to estimate the amount of fat on one’s body. A few other alternatives include:

• Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis

– a low electrical current streams through the body to measure fat and muscle mass

• Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry – a bone density scan

• Air Displacement Techniques – a calcium measuring procedure

• Techniques using isotope-labeled water – measures energy expenditure

• MRI – A magnetic resonance imaging machine uses radio waves and a magnetic field to create images of your physiological makeup.

• Measuring the circumference of your abdomen and hips

If you are concerned about your weight and if you feel like your health is being affected, make an appointment with your health care provider. They will go over any worries you may have and offer ways to help improve your well-being.

Shivraj Goyal, M.D., is an obesity medicine specialist with UPMC Internal Medicine and sees patients at Emporium Health Center, 288 Sizerville Rd., Emporium. To schedule an appointment with Dr. Goyal, call 814-486-0810. For more information, visit UPMC.com/PrimaryCareNCPA.
