Fox News contributors Lisa Boothe and David Webb give their take on the American Medical Association claiming the body mass index scale is racist on 'The Big Weekend Show.'
Panelists Lisa Boothe, David Webb and Griff Jenkins give their take on the medical community's controversial take on 'The Big Weekend Show.'Medical officials are now discouraging doctors from using BMI to solely determine if a patient is in a healthy weight bracket due to the scale’s supposed discrimination.
"This is the AMA pushing an agenda, not actually dealing with biology and science," Fox News contributor David Webb told"." "BMI was never by itself an accurate measure, and I'm an example of that. I have muscle mass. I'm 200 lbs. and when you look at me, you wouldn't think that, at someone my height. So, there's a lot of factors that go into how they calculate BMI, and it's incorrect. It has to be combined with other things.
