Finally, engage in some independent research to examine BMI in more detail. Look up information that covers the following considerations: - Limitations of the BMI scale, including considerations related to age, lifestyle, etc.

- How a BMI can be used as part of a “growth chart,” turning it from a one-time absolute measure of health into a dynamic measure of change over time

- How human’s nutrition needs change by age and lifestyle, e. g., do student athletes have different nutrition needs than average students? What about adult athletes?
