The more fat people are, the higher the risk of wind

The Xinhua News Agency quoted an investigation report published in the latest issue of the American journal 'Stroke', saying that the heavier the body weight, the higher the risk of wind damage.

Scientists at the University of Minnesota, USA, conducted a 19-year research study of about 13,500 middle-aged Americans.

After measuring the level of obesity level according to the weight height index (BMI), waist circumference and waist circumference ratio, scientists have analyzed the relationship between level obesity with wind risk.

The results of statistical analysis show that, in general, the higher the weight, the greater the risk of wind damage.

For example, in terms of BMI (body mass index), among those surveyed, the risk of wind exposure for people with the highest BMI was 1.43 to 2.12 times higher than people with normal BMI.

In terms of waist circumference, the risk of windfall for people with a large waistline will be 1.65 to 3.19 times higher than those with normal waist circumference.

Scientists analyzed and said that this is because of the high risk of high blood pressure and diabetes in relatively obese people, while high blood pressure and urinary diseases themselves. Sugar is the two main causes of wind disease and cardiovascular diseases.
