Abstract excerpt

Normal weight is associated with a favorable cardiometabolic risk profile and low risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. However, some normal-weight individuals-the "metabolically obese normal weight" (MONW)-show a cardiometabolic risk profile similar to the obese. Previous studies have shown that older age, central body fat distribution, and unfavorable lifestyle increase the risk of MONW. However,...
