AB This article discusses results from a study demonstrating that young adults with slightly higher modified Edmonton Obesity Staging System (EOSS) scores had diets that were of poorer quality and with more calories. In addition, higher EOSS scores were associated with factors previously shown to increase the susceptibility to cardiometabolic diseases, such as increased body mass index.
