我觉得life style>generic,黑人白人有钱人家给孩子从小有各种体育项目,也不胖。很多胖的都是那些贫民窟还有北部穷的州,芝加哥之类的地方。中国人我没见过比我胖的,我是overweight但是我是举铁的所以muscle mass比较高。

基因还是很重要的 亚裔二代之后饮食结构也挺美式的,吃的差不多 之前有个新闻,一个耶鲁的亚裔女生BMI太低被校医要求增肥,否则要退学 她狂吃垃圾食品还是达不到要求,最后找媒体闹大才免于处分

BMI这个指标对亚裔不是很合适。亚裔BMI不够obesity标准的,脂肪也大多都堆在肚子上,其实很不健康。

所以AHA建议亚裔肥胖用更严格的标准。 https://www.heart.org/en/news/2019/06/26/adjusting-bmi-eliminates-lead-asian-americans-hold-in-heart-health#:~:text=Specifically%2C%20Asians%20are%20more%20likely,higher%20as%20overweight%2C%20Fang%20said.
Specifically, Asians are more likely to develop fat around their abdomen, which is linked to a higher risk for cardiovascular disease. It''s partly why the World Health Organization proposed lowering the BMI cutoff for Asian populations to consider anything 23 or higher as overweight, Fang said.
