Message definition (Body mass index)
===Corpulence index (exponent of 3)===
The [[corpulence index]] uses an exponent of 3 rather than 2. The corpulence index yields valid results even for very short and very tall people, which is a problem with BMI. For example, a {{convert|152.4|cm|ftin|abbr=on}} tall person at an ideal body weight of {{convert|48|kg|lb|abbr=on}} gives a normal BMI of 20.74 and CI of 13.6, while a {{convert|200|cm|ftin|abbr=on}} tall person with a weight of {{convert|100|kg|lb|abbr=on}} gives a BMI of 24.84, very close to an overweight BMI of 25, and a CI of 12.4, very close to a normal CI of 12.

Corpulence index (exponent of 3)

The corpulence index uses an exponent of 3 rather than 2. The corpulence index yields valid results even for very short and very tall people, which is a problem with BMI. For example, a 152.4 cm (5 ft 0 in) tall person at an ideal body weight of 48 kg (106 lb) gives a normal BMI of 20.74 and CI of 13.6, while a 200 cm (6 ft 7 in) tall person with a weight of 100 kg (220 lb) gives a BMI of 24.84, very close to an overweight BMI of 25, and a CI of 12.4, very close to a normal CI of 12.
