MONDAY, Dec. 28 (HealthDay News) — No man who is fat is truly healthy over the long term, a new study finds.
“There appears to be no such thing as metabolically healthy obesity,” said a statement by Dr. Johan Arnlov, an associate professor of cardiovascular epidemiology at Uppsala University, and lead author of a report published online Dec. 28 in the journal Circulation.
That assessment is based on a study that has followed almost 1,800 Swedish men, starting at age 50, for an unusually long time, 30 years, recording those who died or had a cardiovascular problem such as a heart attack or stroke.
Problems only become more evident after 15 years or so, the researchers found.
Using the body-mass index, which matches height and weight and lists a score of 30 as obese and 25 to 30 as overweight, the study found that over the 30-year period, the risk of cardiovascular disease was 63% higher in men of normal weight who had metabolic syndrome, compared to normal-weight men who did not have metabolic syndrome. It was 52% higher in overweight men without metabolic syndrome, 74% higher in overweight men with metabolic syndrome, 95% higher in obese men without metabolic syndrome and 155% higher in obese men with metabolic syndrome.
