Fitness Coach Attributes Japan's Low Obesity Rate to Lifestyle and Environment
Fitness coach Dan Go highlighted Japan's low obesity rate of 6%, contrasting it with the US rate of 43%, attributing this difference to Japan's daily lifestyle and environment rather than dieting. He noted that walking is integrated into daily routines due to reliance on public transport, and traditional Japanese diets emphasize smaller portions and less processed food. This structural design reduces the need for conscious dieting, making healthy habits a natural part of life.
