Size v Health
Truth be told: you can be overweight and fit – or thin and unhealthy. So what’s the difference?
Although someone may be overweight compared to a thinner person, they can still be ‘metabolically healthy’, if they don’t suffer from ailments such as insulin resistance, high blood pressure and cholesterol, diabetes, or any kind of cardiovascular disease.
If a person is overweight plus also suffers from insulin resistance, plus diabetes, plus abnormal blood pressure – then they are in a poor state of health.
A thin person on the other hand who carries no excess weight may be at greater risk of physical deterioration than the larger person who is healthy.
