One study she highlighted was Flegal KM, et al., 293[15]: 1861-7, 20 April 2005 in which the authors found this notion of an "obesity paradox" where people with BMIs between 26 and 29 (overweight) actually had a decreased risk of death compared to those in the normal weight category. <br /><br />I'm sorry, but you and Dr. Saguy should be ashamed of yourselves. I don't see how you can even call yourselves professionals. <br /><br /><br />https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15840860<br /><br /><br />From the study itself:<br /><br />"Underweight and obesity, particularly higher levels of obesity, were associated with increased mortality relative to the normal weight category."<br /><br /><br />But what of being Overweight? Do you know why being overweight is associated with decreased mortality? <br /><br />Because BMI doesn't account for muscle mass.<br /><br />Muscle mass decreases all cause mortality - And people with muscle mass are often overweight by BMI standards. <br /><br /><br />But they are most of the time NOT overfat.<br /><br />https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4035379/<br /><br />https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5225584/<br /><br />http://newsroom.ucla.edu/releases/higher-muscle-mass-associated-with-lower-mortality-risk-in-people-with-heart-disease<br /><br />https://www.bmj.com/content/362/bmj.k2575<br /><br /><br />The fact that you're using this as a defense for being overfat is absolute pseudoscience and you should be absolutely ashamed of yourself.<br /><br />Being overfat is dangerous for an individuals health (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5523552/) and for you to encourage that being overfat is okay from a health standpoint is medical malpractice.
