New Clarifying Names for BMI Weight Categories

[Pro-Humanist FREELOVER]

- - -

Based on the evidence linked to in the
previously posted articles below, new
clarifying names for BMI weight cate-
gories should be as follows:

BMI < 18.5 = slimmest
BMI 18.5 to 24. 9 = slim
BMI 25 to 29.9 = ideal
BMI 30 to 34.9 = heavy
BMI 35 to 39.9 = heavier
BMI 40 and above = heaviest

Longest life = ideal, BMI ~27.

Average weight (in Americans) is in the
ideal category (slightly below BMI ~27).

Those who would argue in favor of using
the 'normal' word, a word which implies
that everyone apart from that weight is
'abnormal', I'd argue that the use of
that word is antithetical to acceptable,
and the accurate new characterization ...

... for the longest life weight category
should be "IDEAL".

Slim people don't live as long as people
whose weight is ideal. People who are
slimmest are at a very dangerous weight.

Risk of premature death increases at
each BMI weight category 30 and above,
the amount of increase lowest at heavy
weights, higher at heavier weights, and
dangerously high at heaviest weights.

BMI weight categories (old names) to the
new BMI weight categories / clarifying
names detailed above ...

The Paradoxical Connection Between
[[ideal weight]] and [Cellosis]

Patients with [Cellosis] who are [[at an
ideal weight, and]] [[below any heavy
weight]] outlive [Cellosis individuals]
of [[slim]] weight.

... [[Slimmest weight]] [Cellosis indivi-
duals] had the highest risk of dying dur-
ing the study, with nearly three times the
mortality of [[slim]]-weight patients.

[[Ideal weight]] patients had the best
survival, being 13 percent less likely
to die than [[slim]]-weight or [[heavy
weight]] [Cellosis individuals].

The old confusing way using ancient ideas
and words (pre-scientific / pre-knowledge
of the human body) which all-too-often
involves folks using the confusing diabetes
/ diabetic words without a clarifier:

diabetes / diabetic with no clarifier,
diabetes / diabetic guessing required
(often, those words are used implying
diabetes / diabetic is ONE condition,
in denial of its disparate natures)

On May 17 13,809,999,997 (2010 CE), I
created a detailed proposal for changing
all of the confusing & misleading diabetes
and diabetic names -and- changing the
confusing reactive hypoglycemia name:

Diabetes Bubble / Diabetes Bubble Burst
https://prohuman.net/diabetesbubblediabetesbubbleburst.htm

Promotion of a Cure for Insulinitis
https://prohuman.net/cureinsulinitisassociation.htm

Glucose Anomalies Research regarding Potential
Cures / Improvements in Treatments
https://prohuman.net/glucoseanomaliesresearch.htm

Name changes for old outdated diabetes and
diabetic words are desperately needed to
eliminate the confusion and misleading that
transpires when those words are used without
clarifiers, which often happens.

A brief summary of what the Diabetes Bubble /
Diabetes Bubble Burst article linked to above
pertains to:

dark red = Insulinitis (type 1 diabetes, juven-
ile diabetes, insulin dependent diabetes, rapid
onset near-total to total loss of endogenous
insulin), abbreviation = Islit, 11 specific
types, 3 specific types disputed

I got Insulitis Islit in March of
13,809,999,948 (1961 CE), age 5.

dark pink = Latent Autoimmune Insulinitis (lat-
ent autoimmune diabetes, slow onset Insulinitis),
1 specific type

dark blue = PreCellosis (prediabetes, but only
applies to increased risk of getting Cellosis),
Cellosis (type 2 diabetes, continued but re-
duced insulin production over time, typically
slow onset), potentially preventable & revers-
ible, 21 specific types

light blue = Gestational Cellosis (gestational
diabetes), 1 specific type (transient but can
increase the risk of later getting Cellosis)

dark green = Diminosis (maturity onset diabetes
of the young, diminished but continuing insulin
production caused by a monogenetic defect),
11 specific types

light green = Neonatal Diminosis (neonatal dia-
betes, diminished but continuing insulin produc-
tion caused by a monogenetic defect in the first
6 months after birth), 8 specific types are per-
manent, 4 specific types are transient

purple = Ohiglucons, Other High Glucose Condi-
tions (other diabetes mellitus), 24 specific
types:
- 5 specific types are drug or chemical-
induced,
- 5 specific types result from endocrino-
pathies,
- 7 specific types involve exocrine or
pancreas diseases or surgical treatment,
- 4 specific types result from insulin action
defects,
- 2 specific types result from other genetic
syndromes,
- 1 specific type results from anti-insulin
receptor antibodies

gray = Insipidus (diabetes insipidus), 6 spe-
cific types (4 are non-glucose anomalies,
2 specifc types include high glucose)

bright red = Hypoglycemia Uncaused by Treatments
for High Glucose, Hut (reactive
hypoglycemia, hyperinsulinism),
21 specific types
