SATURDAY, June 19 (HealthDay News) -- For a small number of obese people, those extra pounds do not condemn them to heart disease or diabetes, Dutch researchers report.
For those few without other risk factors such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol, being obese doesn't raise their risk of cardiovascular trouble.
"Metabolically healthy obese persons do not have the elevated cardiovascular risk of obesity, but represent only a small subset of the total obese population," said lead researcher Dr. Andre van Beek, from the University Medical Center in Groningen. "It's the metabolic risk profile that counts, and not the weight itself."
He was to present the findings Saturday at the Endocrine Society's annual meeting in San Diego.
For the study, van Beek's group collected data on 1,325 obese people from among 8,356 people who participated in a large Dutch study.
