Examined the association between BMI and HRQoL across early, middle, and late adulthood.
Analyzed data considering variations based on sex and age groups.
Identified implications for health policy targeting nutritional health.
The relationship between BMI and HRQoL differs significantly by sex and age.
Proper weight maintenance is critical for improving HRQoL in all adulthood stages.
Policy strategies should be tailored to address these differences.

Implication
