{"status":"ok","error":null,"data":{"height":"170 cm","weight":"70 kg","bmi":24.221453287197235,"risk":"Low risk","summary":"This weight is normal and you are healthy.","recommendation":"A BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 falls within the 'normal' weight range according to the World Health Organization. This range is associated with the lowest health risk for conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers. However, it's important to note that BMI is not a perfect measure as it does not account for muscle mass, bone density, overall body composition, and racial and sex differences. Therefore, while it's a useful starting point, it should not be the only measure of one's health."}}

Overview

The Body Mass Index Analyzer API is a tool designed to automatically calculate Body Mass Index (BMI) based on the height and weight provided by the user. This API returns not only the BMI value, but also additional relevant information, such as the associated risk level and recommendations based on internationally recognized health standards, such as those of the World Health Organization.

When input parameters such as height and weight are sent, the API processes the data and generates an accurate BMI result. For example, with a height of 170 cm and a weight of 70 kg, the API calculates a BMI of approximately 24.2, classified as “normal weight” with “low risk” of weight-related diseases. In addition, the API provides an interpretive summary of the result and suggestions on how to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

The main advantage of this API is that it automates a process that would otherwise require manual calculations and reference table lookups. This makes it useful for health app developers, wellness platforms, clinics, and online health monitoring services. The information generated can be integrated into dashboards, mobile applications, or medical tracking systems, allowing users to obtain clear and quick information about their health status.

In summary, the Body Mass Index Analyzer API provides an efficient and accessible method for calculating body mass index, assessing associated risks, and offering personalized health recommendations, making it a valuable tool for applications and services focused on wellness and prevention.

Body Mass Index Analyzer API FAQs

The BMI Calculation endpoint returns data including the calculated BMI value, associated risk level, a summary of health status, and personalized health recommendations based on the user's height and weight.

The key fields in the response data include "height," "weight," "bmi," "risk," "summary," and "recommendation," providing a comprehensive overview of the user's health status.

The BMI Calculation endpoint accepts parameters for "height" (in cm) and "weight" (in kg). Users must provide these values to receive an accurate BMI calculation.

The response data is structured in a JSON format with a "status" field indicating success, an "error" field for any issues, and a "data" object containing the BMI calculation results and recommendations.

Typical use cases include integrating BMI calculations into health apps, wellness platforms, and clinics, allowing users to monitor their health status and receive personalized recommendations.

Data accuracy is maintained by using internationally recognized health standards, such as those from the World Health Organization, ensuring that the BMI calculations and recommendations are reliable.

Users can expect consistent data patterns, such as a BMI value within a specific range (e.g., underweight, normal, overweight, obese) along with corresponding risk levels and health recommendations based on the calculated BMI.

Users can utilize the returned data by interpreting the BMI value and risk level to assess their health, and by following the recommendations provided to maintain or improve their health status.

Once subscribed, return to the API page and you will see your API Access Key displayed at the top of the documentation page. You can use this key to authenticate your requests.

The free trial lasts for 7 days and allows you to make up to 50 API requests.

Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.

Prices are listed in USD (United States Dollar), EUR (Euro), CAD (Canadian Dollar), AUD (Australian Dollar), and GBP (British Pound). We accept all major debit and credit cards.

The local currency shown on the pricing page is based on the country of your IP address and is provided for reference only. The actual prices are in USD (United States Dollar). When you make a payment, the charge will appear on your card statement in USD, even if you see the equivalent amount in your local currency on our website. This means you cannot pay directly with your local currency.
Occasionally, a bank may decline the charge due to its fraud protection settings. We suggest reaching out to your bank initially to check if they are blocking our charges. Also, you can access the Billing Portal and change the card associated to make the payment. If these does not work and you need further assistance, please contact our team at [email protected]
Prices are determined by a recurring monthly or yearly subscription, depending on the chosen plan.
API calls are deducted from your plan based on successful requests. Each plan comes with a specific number of calls that you can make per month. Only successful calls, indicated by a Status 200 response, will be counted against your total. This ensures that failed or incomplete requests do not impact your monthly quota.
Zyla API Hub works on a recurring monthly subscription system. Your billing cycle will start the day you purchase one of the paid plans, and it will renew the same day of the next month. So be aware to cancel your subscription beforehand if you want to avoid future charges.
To upgrade your current subscription plan, simply go to the pricing page of the API and select the plan you want to upgrade to. The upgrade will be instant, allowing you to immediately enjoy the features of the new plan. Please note that any remaining calls from your previous plan will not be carried over to the new plan, so be aware of this when upgrading. You will be charged the full amount of the new plan.
To check how many API calls you have left for the current month, refer to the 'X-Zyla-API-Calls-Monthly-Remaining' field in the response header. For example, if your plan allows 1,000 requests per month and you've used 100, this field in the response header will indicate 900 remaining calls.

You can monitor your API usage through the response headers included with every request:

x-zyla-api-calls-monthly-used: Shows the total number of API requests you have used during the current billing period.
x-zyla-api-calls-monthly-remaining: Shows the number of API requests you have remaining for the current billing period.

The 'X-Zyla-RateLimit-Reset' header shows the number of seconds until your rate limit resets. This tells you when your request count will start fresh. For example, if it displays 3,600, it means 3,600 seconds are left until the limit resets.

Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time. Simply go to the Pricing section of the API you're subscribed to and click the "Unsubscribe" button.
