Abstract
Previous literature shows that Body Mass Index (obesity status) is a strong predictor of the
Ageing over the period from 2002 to 2011, we find that obesity status is also a significant risk
ADLs and IADLS and for specific existing health conditions, including diabetes, high blood pressure,
but not formal care, in two-year’s time. Sensitivity analysis on a restricted sample shows that this
significantly lower likelihood of using any mode of care in the future, with the strongest effect for
protective effect of physical activity is stronger for males.
