Age‐ and Gender‐specific BMI in Terms of the Lowest Mortality in Japanese General Population

Among the general Japanese population, the risk nadir BMI for the age group of 60-79 years was higher compared to the age group of 40-59 years, which was similar to the study for whites, and the age-dependent risk nadir BMI differed from the official guidelines criteria. Our findings underscore the importance of weight control following appropriate indicators of body weight according to age.
