      Is this adjusted for the difference in weight between generations? Eg. average height today is like 2 inches taller than a hundred years ago. The longer ago a person was born, the smaller they were all around, in general.

      Average weight of that age of person in the population now, or average weight of a person as they mature and grow older?

    2. What is the country of reference?

      95kg at peak for a man on average seems to be really fat to me

    3. Both men and women reach their highest weight (on average) at 45? I’d have guessed at least 10 years older than that or even 20 years (~65 years of age).

    4. What this data demonstrates is that overweight people start to die at a higher rate at around age 45. The average individual does not lose body mass as they get older.

    5. Is the jump in women’s weights around 18 a biological truth or more of a social result from the freshman 15?

      „The curves diverge and never reconverge“. Don’t know why it felt so sad reading that lol

    7. That spike happening at what appear to be 18 years old for women seems off. I know society has made 18 the age of majority, but why would 18 cause a biological event?

      It feels like a flaw in the underlying data(e.g. different surveys had to be conducted for under vs over 18 and sample size or other inconsistencies resulted in different numbers).

      The CDC charts for women under 20 doesn’t seem to reflect that spike.

      I’m sorry but “the curves diverge and never reconverge” is cracking me up
