According to this article from BBC News, there is apparently a close relation between weight and cancer risk. Apparently, people who are overweight are more at risk (especially after the age of 25) and that all people should try to remain at a good weight for their height without becoming underweight. This seems to me to be like good advice in one respect (as being conscious of one's health is always important) however they do use the body mass index to determine what weight everyone should be and this scale is highly skewed.
