Therefore we investigated the association between body mass index (BMI) at ages 7-13 years and heart disease in adulthood among 276,835 Danish schoolchildren. We found that higher BMI during this period of childhood is associated with an increased risk of any, non-fatal and fatal heart disease in adulthood.
