    A few stereotypes here which I have to dismantle. North Italian don't follow the mediterrerian diet because we are not mediterrerian, however we have less obesity than in the south. If somebody is overweight, they get referred to a dietician. we walk more and most importantly our food is of very good quality.

    its because they eat real fruits and vegetables there and dont have factory farms that pumps an insane amount of nitrogen into the ground to make the food grow more, bigger, and faster. The food that grows in America is a lot and big and fast but its an empty shell and has no nutrients and instead the country is deficient , tired, hungry, and sick. That's why they have a lot of mental health and body issues because they are just not getting the vitamins and minerals that they're supposed to get. They are not fat, they have become sick

    I'm italian and have been to USA. I was astonished by the food portions, they litteraly don't make sense, it's much more than a human being need to feel satisfied. Also by the quantity of sugar drinks americans drink. For us is normal to drink water when we eat. And in general the food is mostly industrial processed, full of sugars and fats. I enjoyed eating it the first couple of days but then I was feeling very disturbed, my stomach and my intestine felt heavy.

    While this is true, the composition of thr calories you eat does influence hormones, which in turn influences things like hunger and base metabolic rate. E.g. someone with (pre-)diabetes (T2D) will have an easier time losing weight on a relatively low carb diet, to bring their insulin resistance back into balance

    The following is also one of the reasons for more obesity in the UK and also the USA: “About 50.7%: or over half of all the food bought by families in the UK is “ultra-processed" , more than any others in Europe. Ultra-processed food is made in a factory with industrial ingredients and additives invented by food technologists and bearing little resemblance to the fruit, vegetables, meat or fish used to cook a fresh meal at home... In Italy: only 13.4%, in France: 14.2%." (Guardian 2 Feb 2018)

      Not necessarily true. When I was there for a summer, I saw Italians eating a lot of calorie dense foods, not many fruits and vegetables. Also, they walk everywhere, many places don't have elevators. I walked everywhere, didn't gain weight, and I ate a lot of food. But Italians also smoke a lot, which means they are not snacking. Very similar to America 70 years ago. Smoking, walking, smaller meals, few snacks. It's not that difficult. But smoking is nasty and terrible for your health, so I don't recommend it.

      Si, ma la dieta mediterranea non Ăš la cucina italiana o meglio le varie cucine italiane. Era il cibo a disposizione dei contadini poveri di area mediterranea prima del consumismo. E cioĂš principalmente ortaggi, frutta di stagione, cereali, olio di oliva grezzo, legumi, pesce soprattutto per chi viveva vicino al mare, vino durante i pasti,carne poche volte all'anno, studiata sistematicamente la prima volta da un medico al seguito dell'esercito USA dopo lo sbarco a Salerno, che notĂČ come i contadini, anche quelli piĂč poveri, avessero un fisico asciutto e sano. Ma ora non esiste piĂč, proprio in Campania c'Ăš il maggior tasso di obesitĂ  in Italia, specie tra adolescenti e giovani, proprio per il malinteso sulla dieta "mediterranea". PerchĂ© l'obesitĂ , almeno in gran parte, non Ăš dovuta al cibo spazzatura stile USA o alle merendine, ma all'abuso delle 4 P(Pizza, Pane, Patate e Pasta).

      All I can do is talk from my experience: When I did an exchange year at the University of Vermont in the USA, I quickly noticed that a lot of southern Europeans about my age range at the time (18-22 years old) were much more mature and sensible surrounding alcohol than my American age mates that I met out there I think a lot of it has to do with the drinking age and a more relaxed attitude towards alcohol in Europe I wonder if these play a role

      Yes, although alcohol is everywhere, from churches to McDonalds, Italians like to be just a little bit tipsy, it's not okay to be drunk. Italians like to share drinks, and then getting fun together, maybe that's why the habit is not to exceed just for the sake to get high. I see alcoholism like a loneliness plague.

    My friends always remark that I eat way too fast. When I went to visit my Italian cousins in Italy, I saw where I got it from, they ate way faster than I did. So, I question the speed comment. My take is that their food is more local and natural. No preservatives or added sugar. Meals were simpler, no calorie laden sauces. And they are constantly active throughout the day.

      Regarding your previous comment, I’d say a combination of both generally slower eating and more local foods both play a role

      penso che tu abbia ragione, Ăš la qualitĂ  del cibo a fare la differenza, niente fast food e junk food etc.

    South Europe Is not all thin.. Spain for example is full of obese people, their food is usually unhealthy and they drink a lot of alcohol. It depends on food and lifestyle, Greece and Italy do very well in this matter.

    Also, their portions are smaller than the United States, the Pasta is weighted. They are not into huge sub-sandwiches. They eat a lot more vegetables and fruits.
