The ‘Slow Burn’ Phenotype: How Relative Caloric Intake Reveals Hidden Cardiovascular Risk Beyond BMI

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Body mass index (BMI) inadequately captures heterogeneity in cardiovascular (CV) risk. We hypothesised that a ‘Slow Burn’ phenotype, defined as lower‐than‐expected energy intake relative to BMI, age, and sex, identifies individuals at elevated CV risk across the BMI spectrum.
