About HealthCheck

Our Mission

HealthCheck is your go-to resource for evidence-based health and fitness calculators. We believe in making health information accessible, accurate, and actionable for everyone.

Our suite of calculators helps you understand your body composition and calorie needs, empowering you to make informed decisions about your health based on your results.

The Science Behind Our Calculators

All our calculators are built on scientifically validated formulas and methodologies. We regularly review and update our calculations based on the latest research to ensure accuracy.

Our body composition calculators use methods like the U.S. Navy formula, Jackson-Pollock skinfold equations, and BMI correlations to estimate body fat percentage. For energy expenditure, we implement the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, which research has shown to be the most accurate for most individuals.

While these calculators provide valuable estimates, they are not substitutes for professional medical advice or laboratory measurements. We encourage users to consult with healthcare professionals for personalized guidance.

Our Approach

At HealthCheck, we believe in:

  • Accuracy: Using validated scientific formulas and methodologies
  • Education: Providing context and explanation alongside results
  • Accessibility: Making health information available to everyone
  • Transparency: Clearly explaining our calculation methods
  • Privacy: Respecting user data and performing calculations locally

We strive to provide tools that help you understand your body better and make informed decisions about your health and fitness journey.
