Don't you lose weight after reading it?
A new study recently published in the journal Obesity reveals the relationship between weight and wealth of middle-aged Americans: the rich are getting thinner and thinner.
The study investigated and analyzed the relationship between wealth and obesity indicators of nearly 7000 respondents. Researchers divide wealth into five components: housing value, automobile value, debt, savings and investment.
The results also show that there is a significant negative correlation between net wealth and obesity regardless of race, especially in women.
For white women and men, higher housing value is associated with a lower probability of obesity; Black women's obesity is positively correlated with debt.
The researchers pointed out that the study revealed the relationship between obesity and wealth, indicating the importance of understanding the gap between the rich and the poor to solve the problem of obesity.
