Italians the healthiest?!
I am doing a project on Italian food, recipes etc.
Is it true that the italians are the healthiest people?
If it is what do they eat and do to make them healthy?
Any additional facts about italians would be great..:)
Thanks, :)
Answers:
italians are very healthy people
down to their diet which is rich in tomatoes and olive oil
here is a good place to start your research

According to the World Health Organization, Japan actually has the healthiest people in the world. Many in Japan live on a diet filled with fish, soy, seaweed and other health conscious items. Beef, cheese and dairy are rare items in Japanese diet. Italians on the other hand seem to have a zest for life and great food, lots of fresh vegetables, meats and cheeses. Italian food in the US is anything but healthy, but traditional food eaten in Italy tends to be much more on the healthy side.
