Description
A research team tracked body makeup in 432 Slovene adults and checked the same group again two years later, reporting in 2024. They used body mass index and body fat share to class each person, and a mild electric signal device to scan fat, muscle, and mass.
The share classed as overweight or obese by index rose from 40.7 percent to 45.2 percent over the two years. Gains in women came mostly from fat, while gains in men came mostly from fat-free mass. The index also classed far fewer people as obese than the fat share did. The authors urge care with sex, age, and timing when such scans guide health advice.
