Notes:
Abstract Nearly half the adult males of our population are obese. The biological consequences of this obesity were measured as they developed through physiological testing. Individuals with adipose tissue greater than 25% of body weight are compared with those of less than 10% adipose tissue. Physiological differences between the two groups are the same whatever the age of the indiviudals, being roughly a 6 years difference between actual and physiological age.
