New Research: Body weight not correlating with health
Posted by Charles Waisbren on February 10, 2016 at 12:38 PM
OOPS... I might be wrong about all my emphasis on a "healthy" weight. New research shows that a person's body/mass index (weight/height ratio) doesn't really correlate all that well with the incidence of hypertension, hyperlipidemia or diabetes. This information might be like putting "gas on a fire" for us Wisconsinites.
