A member asked:

Who is healthier? 100 lb person who is 5 feeet or one who is 5'5'?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: The "ideal weight" charts are sub-science . If you paid them attention, the entire swimming and wrestling teams would be "underweight", and the mighty football muscle guys would be "obese". The healthier of the two is the one who can out-perform the other athletically.
