| Category | BMI | Weight (kg) | Weight (lbs) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🔵 Underweight | < 18.5 | < 57 kg | < 125 lbs |

The standard BMI range (18.5–24.9) applies through your late forties. For adults 50 and older, research supports a slightly wider healthy range (20–26.5 BMI), and for those 65+, a range of 21–27 is associated with the best health outcomes — accounting for protective effects of modest extra weight against osteoporosis and illness recovery.

| 50–64 | 20.0–26.5 | 61–81 kg |
| 65+ | 21.0–27.0 | 65–83 kg |
