Overweight must be described more precisely.
in Helsingin Sanomat was an article about obesity (The end of dietingHS 13.1.).
Before we common-sense people who are familiar with natural sciences take the matter into our own hands, overweight must be described in more detail. Calculated with Tökerö's simple formula, the same body mass index for everyone is not convincing.
First: Measuring the amount of fat in the body and monitoring the changes will be introduced. Engineers develop devices. You can get tips from us on the animal side.
Second: Let's find out the target fat percentage for each gender and age group. Optimums can be calculated aiming at the maximum number of working days, healthy life days and total life days. Statisticians know how to count.
Third: Let's move the word läski to the same category as the n-word in contexts concerning the human body.
