Those with BMI 25 to 29.9 in 70s live longer than those with BMI < 25 in 70s?

My current BMI, still at 27.9 despite eating
1,000 calories or less daily and indoor cycling
45 minutes/day. The following article indicates
that weight is advantageous for longer life.

However, they only mentioned 3 weight categories
(underweight, normal weight, overweight) and said
nothing about those with BMI 30 or higher.

The article also mentions 'moderate' daily con-
sumption of alcohol or coffee in a positive man-
ner, but failed to define the quantities that
they labeled 'moderate'.

This article is one among many that indicate the
ideal weight (BMI) for long life is 25 to 29.9,
casting dispersions on efforts to get everyone
to have a weight (BMI) of 18.5 to 24.9, the so-
called 'normal' weight category.

'Normal' weight = shorter life? Hmmmm.

... people who were overweight in their 70s
lived longer than people who were normal or
underweight in their 70s.

Drinking alcohol better than exercise
for living past 90, study claims

The 90+ Study, led by the University of
California neurologist Claudia Kawas,
says seniors drinking a moderate amount
of alcohol each day lowered their risk
of premature death more than seniors who
exercise daily.

CBS BOSTON - Looking to live into your 90s?
A new study suggests the answer to a long
life might be found in your wine glass.

The 90+ Study, led by the University of Cal-
ifornia neurologist Claudia Kawas, says sen-
iors drinking a moderate amount of alcohol
each day lowered their risk of premature
death more than seniors who exercise daily.

The study has monitored over 1,600 people
over the age of 90; which researchers call
the fastest-growing age group in the United
States.

According to the findings Dr. Kawas presented
at the 2018 American Association for the Ad-
vancement of Science conference in Texas, hav-
ing two glasses of wine or beer dropped the
chance of premature death by 18 percent.

Daily exercise for 15 to 45 minutes was found
to only reduce premature death by 11 percent.

The findings clash with some studies which have
linked heavy drinking to high blood pressure and
cancer. However, they also support research which
claims alcohol can increase mental clarity.

“I have no explanation for it, but I do firmly
believe that modest drinking improves longevity,”
Dr. Kawas told the AAAS conference, according to
Tech Times.

The 90+ Study also found that people who were
overweight in their 70s lived longer than peers
who were considered average or thin. “It’s not
bad to be skinny when you’re young but it’s very
bad to be skinny when you’re old.”

Researchers added that two cups of coffee also
helped maintain longevity, lowering the risk of
death by 10 percent. The biggest key to a long
life that Dr. Kawas’ group found was having a
hobby. Two hours of work a day on a hobby dropped
the risk of death by 21 percent.
