much easier to measure one variable and that would be either weight or body fat. Lose the weight and BP/chol will follow suit.

I saw a scale for home use for sale in Target with claims on the box that it would “calculate” body fat percentage and water weight percentage! I was suspicious so I started reading further and as far as I could tell you input your age and height and when you weigh yourself it will put up numbers for fat percentage and water percentage. This is pure bullfeathers, a classic case of garbage in, garbage out. No matter, there will be plenty of people who will fall for this.
the reason why I originally said bmi is that it is so much easier to measure than body fat%. but you still have to get yourself weighed by a doctor if you expect a tax credit.
So much better than taxing and banning things and my approach actually gets people to exercise. Also, my approach won’t give credit if you yo-yo because you need to prove you lost weight and kept it off for a minimum amount of time.
