Obesity and sex- and age-specific income – evidence from the HUNT study

2022-11-18

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Elevated body mass index (BMI) has been found to be associated with lower income, especially among women, and increasing evidence suggests that this association is causal. However, there is limited knowledge about the sex-specific effect of BMI on income at different ages. The relationship between BMI and income may change with age due to, for example, BMI-related morbidities or discriminatio...
