A little extra weight may protect people from early death, reports this news release, Underweight and Extremely Obese Die Earlier than People of Normal Weight, Study Finds. According to the study results, "underweight people and those who are extremely obese die earlier than people of normal weight - but those who are overweight actually live longer than people of normal weight." I guess for me, that means I need to put on a couple more pounds. How about you?
