Documents the prevalence of obesity and related health conditions for Europeans aged 50 years and older, and estimates the association between obesity and health outcomes across 10 European countries. Cross-country differences in the prevalence of obesity in older Europeans are substantial and exceed socio-demographic differentials in excessive body weight. Obesity is associated with significantly poorer health outcomes among Europeans aged 50 years and over, with effects similar across countries.
