3) Is BMI an appropiate measure of health?
Pros:
* it is quick and easy to calculate, so it provides a prompt measure.
Cons:
* It is not accurate.
* It leaves out specific conditions of the person: genetic and fitness.
I like that it provides a standardization to compare the status of different persons based on an objective measure, but you need to include other factors: age, gender, build, fat %, activities performed, among others. So, I am in favor of using it only like a factor but you need to use other additional measures.
