French are also apparently slightly less obese than their neighbours, the difference is not only with the US.
They seem to have similar average BMI and the Swiss seem to have an even lower obesity rate.
Belgium seems lower obesity rates than France but slightly higher average BMI.
Andorra has lower obesity rates but a significantly higher average BMI.
The UK, Spain and Germany are doing worse than France.
A bit of chatting with Gemini suggests what Belgium, France and the Swiss share is a strong market culture so food is more fresh.
Or maybe speaking french automatically makes you healthier. I’m gonna choose to believe it’s that one.
And they all eat a lot of butter and dairy products.
That really depends of which part of France you are talking about. Provence uses mostly olive oil. In the South West they often use duck fat.
