Is The AMA Saying BMI Should Be Scrapped!?
The American Medical Association released a press statement saying that the use of BMI is problematic. Is this good news?? The AMA famously went against their own expert advice to classify fatness as a disease with the BMI as the way to diagnose the disease so what’s with this turn about? Does it mean that the BMI will be no more or is this just more sneaky weight loss industry lobbying which will cause more harm?
