A member asked:

What is the ideal bmi for a 14 years old 167cm? i'm 57kg

A doctor has provided 1 answer

There is no: "ideal". Normal would generally be 18.5–24.9 and yours is 20.4, so it is totally appropriate for now. However, bmi's are not as reliable in your age group as with adults. Stay healthy and lean.
