Lean & Mean Is Health At Any Age.
HOGWASH!
The Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging indicates that people
75+ with a Body Mass Index of 27 are much more likely to live longer than those
with a BMI between 19 - 25. One hypothesis suggests that the BMI of 27 could
assist the immune system when fighting colds or infections. Conversely, those
with BMI’s 30+ should bring their weight down under the supervision of their
doctor.
