UM: Medical

The Associated Press reports on a UM study looking at weight and health risks. AP describes the findings as the first national study that “bolsters the argument that you can be hefty but still healthy, or at least healthier than has been believed.” UM researcher MaryFran Sowers is quoted in the report. (Update: Katie Couric cites this study on tonight’s CBS Evening News, but doesn’t mention the UM connection.)  [Source]
