Abstract: The authors comment on the conduct of various studies on estimating the number of deaths due to obesity. They discuss the limitations and issues regarding previous studies regarding deaths due to obesity. One of the issues is the reverse causation, of the fact that low weight can result from illness rather than leanness causing illness.
