The world's "fattest" person for the foreseeable period of history lived in a country where today most people are overweight - in the United States of America.

John Minnock is the fattest man on Earth

His name was John Minnock, he was a taxi driver in the town of Bainbridge as long as his size allowed him to fit into a car. Subsequently, he left his job and was constantly at home, while his weight approached the mark of 630 kilograms.

Convened a council of doctors decided that the "fattest" man in the world should urgently lose weight, for which a diet of 1200 calories per day was made, which John was on for 2 years. This allowed him to lose weight to 216 kg. However, there were periods in his life when he again gained weight (up to 90 kg per week), so he failed to finally cope with his illness. He died in 1983 atage 20.

The fattest woman in the world

The world's fattest female person also lived in America. The woman, whose waist was about 3 meters, was called Carol Yeager. The lady had a mass of about 544 kg with a height of 1.7 meters. They tried to help her, including eminent nutritionists, she was repeatedly sent to the hospital (each time up to 20 firefighters participated in the moving work), but, unfortunately, everything turned out to be in vain. Carol was never able to lose weight, and overweight and illness reduced her life to 34 years.

"Lucky" Urbe

Against the background of the above personalities, the "fattest" man in the world in 2007, Manuel Urbe, can be considered lucky. With a weight of more than 550 kg, he lived for more than forty years. Today, his age is close to 50 years, and the latest developments in the field of medicine made it possible to truncate the volume of the stomach, as a result of which (and in combination with the diet) Manuel lost two centners of his weight and even married his nurse after that.

Young shift grows

The "fattest" person in the world can grow out of one of the children who were born in Russia. Today, two cases are known when boys aged 10 and 13 years old weighed 150 and 180 kilograms, respectively. These are Dzhambulat Khotokhov from Nalchik and Alexander Pekhteleev from Volgograd, respectively. If Sasha's weight is accompanied by a rare disease (Prader Willi syndrome), then Dzhambulat was born an ordinary child in an ordinary family. He has threebrothers with standard mass. Today, the guy is engaged in sumo, and Russian, as well as Japanese experts, believe that he can succeed in this field.

Watch your weight and be he althy

A photo of the "fattest" person of all time is not a very pleasant sight. Therefore, in the absence of any congenital anomalies, excess weight must be fought. This is especially true today, when the quality of food is not very high, and the mobility of people in developed countries, including Russia, is rapidly falling. In order to avoid obesity, you need to know that your own weight in kilograms divided by height squared (in meters) should not exceed 22.9 for people under the age of 25 and not exceed 25.9 for people over twenty-five years old.. Higher rates indicate excess weight, as well as various stages of obesity. Coefficients in the range of 35-36 for the respective age groups require urgent measures to reduce weight.
