Why Doesn’T The Us Use Kg? [Solved]
It’s been a long time coming, but the U.S. still hasn’t made the switch to the metric system. It all boils down to time and money - two things that are always in short supply!
Weight Measurement: Weight is typically measured in pounds (lbs) or kilograms (kg). It is important to note that the United States does not use kg as a unit of measurement for weight.
Body Mass Index: Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight, and it can be used to determine if someone is underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese. BMI should be calculated using lbs instead of kg.
Food Labels: Food labels in the United States list nutritional information such as calories and fat content in lbs rather than kg.
Exercise Equipment: Exercise equipment such as scales and treadmills are calibrated to measure weight in lbs rather than kgs when used in the United States.
Medical Records: Medical records for patients in the United States will typically list their weight measurements using lbs instead of kgs due to standardization across medical practices within the country
No need to worry about kilograms - we don’t use ’em! We measure everything in pounds here. Ain’t no need to convert, just go ahead and use what you know. No muss, no fuss!
