"textContent": "The study, published in Nature Medicine, shows that future risk of 18 obesity-related diseases can be predicted using 20 commonly collected health measures, such as blood test results and demographic information. The tool could complement the use of BMI to offer a more accurate, personalized way to identify individuals at a higher risk of developing conditions like heart disease or cancer, leading to better monitoring, earlier interventions, and improved health outcomes.",
