A few yrs ago a friend's brother went to Vietnam for a month,when he came back,he'd lost some weight & looked amazing his skin was clear,& no dark circles under the eyes.i said what did you do ? He said what do you expect when you eat,fish,rice & vegetables every day. .....nothing wrong with that.
I imagine eating fresh and healthy, along with the SEA sun where you can walk outside for 5 minutes and you’re already sweating, would help to detox and reset your gut microbiome. Seriously guys, if you visit any SEA country, remember there’s a reason why the locals go around walking with umbrellas and layers of sunscreen.
That's usually the problem though. The fact that in many places junk food is the cheaper option, causing people with less money choose the junk option over the healthy one. Not to mention the amount of sugar causing addiction.
I think he meant western junk/fast food is expensive. Like McDonald's is probably way more expensive than street food there. I remembered this was the case in China, all of the fast food chains from America that were there ways really expensive. And really, can't compare in taste to their traditional street food options. Which often are fresh, hand made, and delicious at a fraction of the cost.
It's not enough to just eat cheaply. It's so lazy to not realize how much effort goes into the shopping, preparation and cooking of these varied, nutritious foods, even though the people are already working super hard as it is.... If it was enough to eat cheap, I would feed myself off of pasta with a bit of cheap fat and salt, since I happen to love it. But our health is a LOT more demanding than this
Exactly, not every country has the space or infrastructure to grow the majority of their foods. Many island countries depend on overseas trade in order to feed their people, for example. And in some places, fast food IS the cheaper option. Either eat what you can afford, or starve.
America has far more space for farmland. That’s not the reason. …farm food, (even with Big Agriculture), isn’t as Corporate as say: Coke, McDonald’s, Frito-Lay’s, etc and in America, *Corporations are Far more Important than The People!* We The People Don’t have Lobbyists. 😉
Weren't the fresh noodle made of white grain rice? Nowadays white rice is considered as unhealthy because it's processed food. I'm from Indonesia so we eat white rice too, but now we are told to eat yams and casavas
El Salvador used to be like this. If you wanted a snack the street vendors would selll fresh fruits and juices. American fast food and snacks were rare. It wasn’t until the free trade agreement with the US that people started getting fat 😂
That might be one reason as for why people in Vietnam don't overweight but when it comes to the younger generation I think it mostly has something to do with the beauty standards...
@@mikhailsaa7506I do agree with you... well I don't eat big macs or anything like that as well...I'm from Asia too and we also have many delicious dishes and they are healthy...Still I'm not skinny I'm average...I think the portion also has something to do with it...I'm not pressured by society to stay skinny so I eat a good amount of food everyday...
It depends on how much you eat too. I’m from Vietnam and been overweight for most of my life, every time I went there for vacation I always put back 20 pounds 🤷♀️. Last time I was there I saw significantly more overweight/obese people than ever.
The difference between an Asian foodie and non foodie lol, The foodie will troll the streets for the best pho, banh mi, then finish off with a Vietnamese coffee 😂
You can also find variation of looks too. It's a blend between east and south east asia. I'm viet guy born and live in Canada and people ask if I'm chinese, jap or korean. Some viet look more mix of south east. I wanna move to my country someday
And Bhutan literally charges visitors 200$ a day to visit before the rest of the expenses to visit there like flight, transport, hotel and food. I can't afford to go to Bhutan and most people can't . I hear they've lowered it to 100$ a day now to make Bhutan more affordable for longer stays. LMAO!
I love the Salt Bae mock salute near the end! Very funny! I love Vietnamese food and have learned how to make a lot of the dishes from CZcams. When I go to restaurants I have to ask for special precautions because I am deathly allergic to peppers and also black pepper. They are always happy to accommodate my needs and make the dish without these ingredients. Other restaurants refuse! But every Asian restaurant will help me, the people are so compassionate. I wish we had more of the vegetables they use available here. We have an Asian Market in my town and they are terrific and have such variety of foods it’s amazing. But few people know about it. It’s great for me but other people are missing out!
I knew it! Vietnamese food is the healthiest in South East Asia, now it seems like it might be among the top healthiest in the world as well! I'm not Vietnamese but I love Vietnamese food, especially the pho, I also love the banh mi.
I'm from Indonesia, I only ate 1200 calories a day. I was surprised when my US friend ate more than 3000 calories easily. My max is 1500 calories, my stomach already hurt.
@@jennsuicune...why not google "Indonesian women average height"? To find out it's a mere 5'15"? And guess what the basal metabolic rate for a 5' woman is. As a 5'2" guy it's 15xx kcal with moderate daily activity, and women tend to need less so her numbers sound about right for let's say a 4'9" Indonesian fully grown adult lady.
@@dresden_slowjog I'm 1m50 myself and my basic metabolism is around 1600 kcal and was more when I was younger. You can't build any muscle with so few calories, as someone said in another comment below, you will be skinny fat, like most Asian girls. Moreover, you train your body to function with very few and if later you are pregnant, menopausal or just change your diet a bit you will gain fat. That's how metabolism works for everybody. Anyway, I think a warning should be given to girls who would think such a poor calorie intake is something correct, cause it's not.
Love, love spring rolls. Unfortunately some of us (with weight issues) can even gain weight on fresh foods. Vietnamese have other things going on that contribute to the phenomena. Great Story
My one gripe with Vietnam is that they really don’t get much protein at all. So while they’re still definitely better than your average American, there’s a lot of skinny fat people in the country. That’s pretty common in South Asia in general, as protein and animal isn’t a huge part of their respective diets.
I watched that wondering EXACTLY this. My hackles were raised when he mentioned "calories" because anyone with any sort off relevant nutritional knowledge nowdays knows that calories are IRRELEVANT! Ensuring that you get good, ideally grass-fed protein and fats are absolutely essential to human health. 👍
Really? I think we Viet eat too much protein. We have several different parts of the cow in a bowl of pho. We also have an entire meal called beef 7 ways. Most of my family members had to cut back on certain proteins for health reasons.
@@mandywong1408 I do believe that protein intake has skyrocketed in recent years in Vietnam. But by the standards of a guy who descends from villagers who lived near the Irish coast, it’s still not particularly high. It is possible that your body responds differently and sees something like 0.5g/lb of body weight of protein as a ton, but I can easily go through a gram per pound of body weight a day in it
@@hornetguy9063 For sure their portions are smaller in VN, but definitely proportionate to their size. I am just over 5 feet and in the US our Viet food portions are really big in comparison to VN. I literally make my rolls look like burritos because I am lazy to roll so many times. Why make 4 small rolls when I can make 2 large rolls with more protein 😜
We don’t eat fast food just because they’re really expensive here, quite overprice too, and we value eating while chatting with friends, family and fast food chains are the complete opposite
What i love about their food is that they don’t restrict any food group. They eat everything but with a lot of veggies. And their food is delicious too
Yup. Theyre open minded when it comes to food. If some other culture dishes fit their taste, they will adopt immediately and try to incorporate with Vietnamese cuisine
Northern cold countries are unable to have all food fresh year round. Totally unreasonable for a lot of countries. No junk food is probably attainable.
Vietnamese food has always been a favorite, but even so, Vietnamese food IN Vietnam shocked me with how good it was! Fresh herbs and veg with every meal, and perfectly seasoned!
As a Vietnamese, I actually didn’t know that our food is that fresh as you said:) btw thanks for the helpful information! I appreciate your work and proud of being Vietnamese 🇻🇳:)
It's True. Even at the Hotel in Hanoi, you are served an assortment of Vegetables and Greens. Fastfood restaurants are not popular there since every street corner has a restaurant serving home cooked meals.
Junk food is getting expensive and the US and people are cutting back and starting to shop more and eat more at home something I've been doing as a US person they're super late on that note😂
In America it's exact opposite healthy fresh food is so expensive.i eat to live , I love when I can go buy fresh food fruits and vegetables it's like Christmas,
uh we vietnamese do love junk food (as in, deep fried food), and they are far more affordable and available than fast food. Fried chicken (gà xối mỡ) for example, is available in almost any street corner. Also, our culture doesn't always make healthy choice when men are socially pressured to drink for business and networking.
Eating at home or freshly made food is always the best, but it is also about the organic ingredients. I love Vietnamese food and most of my family grew up in Vietnam as farmers, but food is so different in VN nowadays since the industrialization of the country (once the embargo was lifted). I am hoping that the next generation will help preserve the land of Vietnam over international profits.
As a Vietnamese person,Yes, Most of all Vietnamese food are fresh, Atlease every street in Vietnam has a restaurant of Vietnamese food. Việt Nam has lots of good food. The best dish I have ever tasted is Phở. Việtnam mostly use fresh foods instead of junk, because they don’t really like junk food, If you want to find a fast food restaurant, You would have to go into a mall since it’s not common to see a fast food restaurant.
The thing is, Vietnam also forbids the use of Roundup I read someplace, which is makes the products a lot more healthy, and possibly add to their slimness! That's why I like to buy noodles from Vietnam.
Fresh food is the best! Fresh food also requires WAY MORE time to turn into something delicious. And then there's skill, and let's add artistry. I often dive into a head of fresh cauliflower, or even lettuce, or fresh raw bell pepper. Crisp, crunchy, fresh. But let's be real. Not everybody has a cheerful grandma or auntie spending a couple of hours cooking those wonderful dishes!
You are wrong, the least overweight country is actually Japan 🇯🇵. As it was in fact actually illegal to be fat unless you wanted to become a sumo wrestler
no, it's not anywhere close to being low in protein. Most dishes here are just pure lean protein overload. Espescially party food, where 8/9 dishes could be lean protein, the other one is a vegetable. (boiled chicken, boiled beef, pork, boiled seafood is very common daily dishes, and the fact that Vietnamese animals are extra lean). Even the most popular condiment in the country (fish sauce) is made from animal protein, unlike other asian countries using soy sauce. For dishes you get at the store, the protein in each serving might be lower, but animal protein is always present. The country is still poor, but that's the only reason why. Our culture is not shy away from putting more protein in food the moment we become more well off, unlike the Italians for some reasons
@@Pezinah_19 I'm Vietnamese in Vietnam and I have been to other countries and I'm into body building and nutrition as well, I know what I'm talking about
@@Pezinah_19 no one is talking about fruit. I'm talking about lean meat (grass fed, organic, free range, blah blah). Vietnamese diet and culture eat a lot of lean protein, none of those vegan protein craps.
It's not about just fresh food but also heavy on being plant based because fibre is very important for gut bacteria that affects obesity, mental health and immunity.
this is so amazing to me as someone from atlantic canada, we have the highest rate of obesity in the country and our food is imported so never fresh. people rely on junk food since it’s affordable in comparison to groceries, it’s what their families eat and once you start it’s hard to stop!! lol
Cool fact $25k is $1 Story: When I was younger I was a very unhealthy child eat a lot and be proud of it. But I went on a vacation in Vietnam my home country I lost 8 kg in 1.5 months then lost 6 kg returning to New York. I was really impressed that Asian foods can be this healthy. So if your on a diet try eating Vietnam foods for month, you will see some weight loss. I am currently 48.7 kg pretty overweight for my age but my past weight was around 64kg and lost 8 kg so that is 56kg then lost 6 kg which is 50 kg and I been dieting and Asian foods can help lost fat so I lost 1.3 kg so I am now more healthier and active. 😊😊
I love when countries make junk food expensive and groceries prices reasonable. The price alone turns you off and makes you more inclined to eat at home
@@rgn3007 Depends. When I worked in Detroit there were very few grocery stores and the selection for quality ingredients was not so good and were usually more expensive. But I agree with you overall. Personally I can't do fast food and junk food because I get sick GI wise , I feel fatigued and just not well so I don't eat those foods. Plus it's too expensive to eat out !
For a mesure - 1 bowl of phở it around 15.000 - 35.000 VND ( 1 - 1.37 USD ) - 1 single bánh mì around 10.000 - 15.000 VND ( 0.39 - 1 USD ) This is the most popular dishes in Vietnam with average price. Why I know this? I live and born in Vietnam 🇻🇳
everyone trying to attribute it to “beauty standards” or “culture” when it’s really just the outcome of a successful people’s government where healthy food is affordable and everyone has sustenance
They will not get overweight because they only eat soup. But as a Vietnamese wife of one of our expat bosses, she gained weight in our country. She said our dishes are more delicious and varied. So she said they are slim there because they don't have dishes like ours.
I always loved Vietnamese cuisine. it's quite different from other South East Asian countries more akin to Japanese. Namely, their preference to keep dishes very natural with minimal ingredients. Obviously the rationale is if your eating fish, beef or chicken etc they want to taste the ingredients 😂❤
They are so pro at cooking almost any vegetable, different types and different parts of each vegetable. They have a special way to prepare and cook it to make it delicious. We need to learn from this
In Asia there's more body shaming than in other parts of the world. I guess, that's also one of the reasons, why people there are so conscious of their weight and size.
As an American I’d love fresh produce and healthy foods IF I HAD ANY (I just wanna say I’m so thankful to my parents for making me such high quality home cooked meals that use what to other people are unique spices and flavors that i feel are often healthy and they try to include as many vegetables as possible so I stay healthy love you mom and dad!)

Eating at home or freshly made food is always the best, but it is also about the organic ingredients. I love Vietnamese food and most of my family grew up in Vietnam as farmers, but food is so different in VN nowadays since the industrialization of the country (once the embargo was lifted). I am hoping that the next generation will help preserve the land of Vietnam over international profits.
I’m currently in Vietnam and I thank you for supporting our country!

As a Vietnamese person,Yes, Most of all Vietnamese food are fresh, Atlease every street in Vietnam has a restaurant of Vietnamese food. Việt Nam has lots of good food. The best dish I have ever tasted is Phở. Việtnam mostly use fresh foods instead of junk, because they don’t really like junk food, If you want to find a fast food restaurant, You would have to go into a mall since it’s not common to see a fast food restaurant.
The thing is, Vietnam also forbids the use of Roundup I read someplace, which is makes the products a lot more healthy, and possibly add to their slimness! That's why I like to buy noodles from Vietnam.
Guy in Vietnam: It is expensive here. Him:EVERYTHING IS CHEAP
The amount of effort you've put into this small video, is amazing. Well done!
Fresh food is the best! Fresh food also requires WAY MORE time to turn into something delicious. And then there's skill, and let's add artistry.
I often dive into a head of fresh cauliflower, or even lettuce, or fresh raw bell pepper. Crisp, crunchy, fresh. But let's be real. Not everybody has a cheerful grandma or auntie spending a couple of hours cooking those wonderful dishes!
You are wrong, the least overweight country is actually Japan 🇯🇵. As it was in fact actually illegal to be fat unless you wanted to become a sumo wrestler
Check your facts again buddy. Japan obesity rate is 1.7%. Japan is whopping 4.5%.
@@risingstar9903 Even at 4.5% it's still the #4 least overweight country in the world. USA is 39.6%. Italy is the next best in the G7, at 11.4%.
@@noseboop4354 That I know. I’m talking about the comment where the guy claim obesity rate in Japan is less than Vietnam.
Thank you for coming in Vietnam to record MV .from vietnam
here healthy foods are expensive and junk foods are low😢😢
I just want Nuseir in a Alan's video

it's crazy that some people think Vietnamese diets are healthy even with low protein, and the fact that vietnamese people are so short.
no, it's not anywhere close to being low in protein. Most dishes here are just pure lean protein overload. Espescially party food, where 8/9 dishes could be lean protein, the other one is a vegetable. (boiled chicken, boiled beef, pork, boiled seafood is very common daily dishes, and the fact that Vietnamese animals are extra lean). Even the most popular condiment in the country (fish sauce) is made from animal protein, unlike other asian countries using soy sauce. For dishes you get at the store, the protein in each serving might be lower, but animal protein is always present. The country is still poor, but that's the only reason why. Our culture is not shy away from putting more protein in food the moment we become more well off, unlike the Italians for some reasons
@@JackLuong 🤣 you should go to southeast asia
@@Pezinah_19 I'm Vietnamese in Vietnam and I have been to other countries and I'm into body building and nutrition as well, I know what I'm talking about
@@JackLuong fruits aren't high protein
@@Pezinah_19 no one is talking about fruit. I'm talking about lean meat (grass fed, organic, free range, blah blah). Vietnamese diet and culture eat a lot of lean protein, none of those vegan protein craps.
Not to mention they do far more walking than the average American.
Lets make this revolution! Thanks for this viideo ❤
It's not about just fresh food but also heavy on being plant based because fibre is very important for gut bacteria that affects obesity, mental health and immunity.
Everyone:"Need to burn calories"
Me:"Weight 35☠️".
35 pound! Do you float in the air?
@@shiion6711 Probably in Kilogram or something
Very interesting, I've often thought to myself that Vietnamese food is rather low in calories in general 😊🇻🇳
Did you see Cao Anh Sao at the back at 0:17? It’s in a district and I walk there every day😮. Surprised that Vietnam doesn’t eat a lot of junk food.
I live in Vietnam if you’re wondering.
Me eating food for 3 people:Auntie: You are skinny
this is so amazing to me as someone from atlantic canada, we have the highest rate of obesity in the country and our food is imported so never fresh. people rely on junk food since it’s affordable in comparison to groceries, it’s what their families eat and once you start it’s hard to stop!! lol
Cool fact $25k is $1
Story:
When I was younger I was a very unhealthy child eat a lot and be proud of it. But I went on a vacation in Vietnam my home country I lost 8 kg in 1.5 months then lost 6 kg returning to New York. I was really impressed that Asian foods can be this healthy. So if your on a diet try eating Vietnam foods for month, you will see some weight loss. I am currently 48.7 kg pretty overweight for my age but my past weight was around 64kg and lost 8 kg so that is 56kg then lost 6 kg which is 50 kg and I been dieting and Asian foods can help lost fat so I lost 1.3 kg so I am now more healthier and active. 😊😊
Fantastic 😍. I love their food rule 😁 and tradition 😋. We love ❤️ you and thanks for sharing 💖
North Korea saying hold my beer
I love when countries make junk food expensive and groceries prices reasonable. The price alone turns you off and makes you more inclined to eat at home
What an ADORABLE short! ❤
I’m from Vietnam love from Vietnam!!!❤
Thank you for sharing the video.
I need to learn that from Vietnam!
I totally agree with you Unfortunately junk food is a lot cheaper than healthy food!
Making food at home is cheapest and not necessarily expensive to buy some good quality ingredients
@@rgn3007 Depends. When I worked in Detroit there were very few grocery stores and the selection for quality ingredients was not so good and were usually more expensive. But I agree with you overall. Personally I can't do fast food and junk food because I get sick GI wise , I feel fatigued and just not well so I don't eat those foods. Plus it's too expensive to eat out !
For a mesure
- 1 bowl of phở it around 15.000 - 35.000 VND ( 1 - 1.37 USD )
- 1 single bánh mì around 10.000 - 15.000 VND ( 0.39 - 1 USD )
This is the most popular dishes in Vietnam with average price.
Why I know this? I live and born in Vietnam 🇻🇳
Bánh mì chỗ t rẻ nhất là 5k kkk
Buddy looks a lil different since the last time I saw him... Must be a new cut😊
If only in the US we had fresh fruits and veggies that weren't grown with chemicals.
My favorite part of traveling Asia! Even Russia has fresh veggies and fruit everywhere. Vietnam is next on my travel list!
everyone trying to attribute it to “beauty standards” or “culture” when it’s really just the outcome of a successful people’s government where healthy food is affordable and everyone has sustenance
Thank you guys for providing us the information!
They will not get overweight because they only eat soup. But as a Vietnamese wife of one of our expat bosses, she gained weight in our country. She said our dishes are more delicious and varied. So she said they are slim there because they don't have dishes like ours.
Lol who told you we just eat soup?
I always loved Vietnamese cuisine. it's quite different from other South East Asian countries more akin to Japanese.
Namely, their preference to keep dishes very natural with minimal ingredients. Obviously the rationale is if your eating fish, beef or chicken etc they want to taste the ingredients 😂❤
Ummm, I find this hard to believe when there's many countries with such starving people.
I'm from Vietnam and thank you for inspiring me 😊😊😊
🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳
I think the fresh food being cheap is one of the most important aspects of this.
They are so pro at cooking almost any vegetable, different types and different parts of each vegetable. They have a special way to prepare and cook it to make it delicious. We need to learn from this
From Vietnam with love!
Lot of appreciation Vietnam❤❤
In Asia there's more body shaming than in other parts of the world. I guess, that's also one of the reasons, why people there are so conscious of their weight and size.
There’s also the very common stigma for being fat in Vietnam : people will talk to you about your weight and make fun of you if you gained any.
I'm Vietnamese. Thanks for traveling and making making video ❤
As an American I’d love fresh produce and healthy foods IF I HAD ANY (I just wanna say I’m so thankful to my parents for making me such high quality home cooked meals that use what to other people are unique spices and flavors that i feel are often healthy and they try to include as many vegetables as possible so I stay healthy love you mom and dad!)
