Calculate Body Adiposity Index (BAI)



Formula

The formula to calculate the Body Adiposity Index (BAI) is:

\[ BAI = \left( \frac{HIP}{HEIGHT^{1.5}} \right) - 18 \]

Where:

Example

Let's say the hip circumference (\( HIP \)) is 100 cm and the height (\( HEIGHT \)) is 1.75 m. Using the formula:

\[ BAI = \left( \frac{100}{1.75^{1.5}} \right) - 18 \]

We get:

\[ BAI = \left( \frac{100}{2.324} \right) - 18 \approx 25.2 \% \]

So, the Body Adiposity Index (\( BAI \)) is approximately 25.2%.

What is BAI?

BAI stands for Body Adiposity Index. It is used to estimate the total amount of weight on your body that is fat. It should be noted that this is only an estimation, and there are many ways to estimate body fat amounts and percentages.

Body Adiposity Index (BAI)

Definition: The Body Adiposity Index is a measure of body fat based on hip circumference and height.

Formula: \( BAI = \frac{\text{hip circumference}}{(\text{height})^{1.5}} - 18 \)

Example: \( BAI = \frac{100}{(1.75)^{1.5}} - 18 \)

Visceral Adiposity Index Formula

Definition: The Visceral Adiposity Index (VAI) is a measure of visceral fat distribution and function.

Formula: \( VAI = \frac{\text{waist circumference}}{39.68 + (1.88 \times \text{BMI})} \times \frac{\text{triglycerides}}{1.03} \times \frac{1.31}{\text{HDL cholesterol}} \)

Example: \( VAI = \frac{85}{39.68 + (1.88 \times 25)} \times \frac{1.5}{1.03} \times \frac{1.31}{1.2} \)

Body Mass Index Calculations

Definition: The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight.

Formula: \( BMI = \frac{\text{weight}}{(\text{height})^2} \)

Example: \( BMI = \frac{70}{(1.75)^2} \)

Calculate My Body Weight Index

Definition: A tool to calculate the Body Mass Index (BMI) based on weight and height.

Formula: \( BMI = \frac{\text{weight}}{(\text{height})^2} \)

Example: \( BMI = \frac{80}{(1.8)^2} \)
