‘Overweight’ people live longer
Costigan Quist looks at the evidence and asks a very sensible question:
If being “normal” weight is both less common and less healthy that being “overweight”, wouldn’t it make sense to re-work the classifications?
And, as someone with a BMI currently hovering round the low end of ‘overweight’1, I fully endorse this idea.
- Yeah, I actually had to look that up. I’m not big on the whole ‘health’ thing… [↩]
Or is it that skinny people die too young?
Depends on your point of view I suppose. Ilike your angle, Stu. You have cheered me up; I may have longer to discuss it than many.
