Unfit thin women have a lower mortality rate than *cough* fitfat women.

Did Blair follow over 5,300 people with an average age of around 45 years
for a period ranging from 22 to 26 years? That is what the quoted study
did. That's a significant amount of people over a very significant about
of time. The starting mean age is of particular significance since one
would expect a fair number of deaths over that period of time.
Sadly, the study revolved around BMI rather than BF%. Defining "fat" by
BMI rather than body composition makes the whole thing bull****. IMO.
