Obesity can seriously damage health and ruin the quality of life. Luckily there are countries that don’t have too many overweight people, but of course it doesn’t mean that there aren’t people living with plus kilos. Doing some sports is very important for everyone. As for me, I pursued Jiu-Jiutso and Jodi for eight years, nowadays I jog with the dogs every day, which is an excellent pastime and recreational sport for me. Insidermonkey experts made a list of 10 thinnest countries in Europe.

We have picked one thin European country from the list: Serbia. In Serbia BMI is 25.8. A study has shown that a bit less than 50% of the sample represented people of normal weight according to BMI. 24% of the sample was underweight, while others were overweight and obese. And although rates of overweight and obesity are on the rise as a global trend, Serbia is still among thin countries in Europe. That one reason for it is that many people do some kind of sports and physical activity, and Serbia has some very good athletes and success in sports like water polo, volleyball, tennis, basketball.
