Weight and Height from NHANES

### Context

This dataset is taken from a large[ National Health and Nutrition Survey](https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nhanes/index.htm) conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics. From the original [Body Measures Set (P_BMX)](https://wwwn.cdc.gov/nchs/nhanes/search/datapage.aspx?Component=Examination&Cycle=2017-2020) we selected only adult observations: Height (BMXHT), Weight (BMXWT) and Index body weights (BMXBMI). To select only adults, the BMDBMIC trait was used, which was determined only for children from 2 to 19 years old.
