and, the fatter you are the more stupid too...

I always suspected it...

Neurology has published a paper where a correlation is shown between BMI and cognitive distress.

Now, the scatterplot which i see is dreadfull, and the line they draw through it not really significative. let's face it, the variability of the data is enormous. So, not having read the paper, I do have my doubts...

Also: as a sportsman, I do have a high BMI, but very low fat %age. how does this figure, then? Could this be cause of the variability? I would then expect to see some variability change along the years, may be?

thanks to Shelley for this.
