I suppose it depends which part you mean: the part about "overweight" people living longer with less morbidity; or the part about "obese" people not experiencing significantly increased health problems until they hit a BMI of 35.
The latter is pretty vague - I'm sure the stat is related to something narrower than "significantly increased health problems," I just can't recall offhand what it is.
Either way, I'll check with my resident expert on the subject.
