A healthy body weight doesn't lead to increased risk of heart disease.

The emaciated have health problems of their own to worry about.

The overweight have a host of health problems including cancer and heart disease.

People with a healthy body weight are somewhere in the middle between these extremes and that is (statistically speaking when assessing risk) the correct place to be.

Ah, but that’s the thing. A healthy body weight is different for everybody.
