Abstract
Psychiatric patients are more obese than the general population, but it might be related to physical and demographic correlates: age, chronic illness and lifestyle. These factors can be also responsible for their increase risk of hypertension and hyperlipidemia. All those factors could be more relevant than the presence of mental illness itself or its treatment.
