Veelgestelde vragen

Quick answers.

Which formula should I use?

The Devine formula is the most widely used in medical settings for dosage calculations. The Hamwi formula is often used for quick clinical estimations, while Robinson and Miller provide modern alternatives with slightly different height adjustments.

Does this account for muscle mass?

No. These specific formulas rely solely on height and sex. Athletes or those with high muscle mass may find these results underestimate their healthy weight.

Is the result the same for men and women?

No. The formulas use different constants for biological sex to account for typical physiological differences in bone density and muscle-to-fat ratios.

How accurate are these results?

These are mathematical estimates intended for adults. They serve as a general reference and should be discussed with a medical professional who can evaluate your specific health context and body composition.
