Lao diet is similar to Isaan but be less sugar. Lots of these people are lacking in minerals.

i also imagine the lack of fast food and sugar plays a huge role. it is standard practice now put loads of sugar in many a thai food as well. kao phad sugar for example. 

 

 

laos and viet nam both almost void of fast food in the western sense. 

Are people more happy in Lao?

generally do fatter people carry more medical costs over a life time ? 

 

with simple diet and exercise most overweight people could lose any excess weight and live much healthier and even longer. 

Are skinny people more happy?

You see a lot walking along with a sugar drink in their hand. Not sure if that contributes.

Ride motorbike to buy them. Main factor i think. Empty calories.

My wife and I visited Lao in 2011 and the residents didn't appear to be the happiest nation on earth and I can't blame them.

 

I'm glad we visited to see the other side of the river, but won't be going back.
