OK, even a little overweight is not good

August 26th, 2006

Time for more conflicting stories from the research side of the world.  This time, a huge study finds that being even a little overweight increases mortality rates among baby boomers (read, you are more likely to die). Not long ago, some research claimed that being a little overweight might actually help you.  Probably not.

This research was so widely reported, we at first thought we wouldn’t add it to our blog, but common sense got the better of us.  It’s what we are all about.  See one version of the press report at boston.com.
