Is the stereotype of Swedish people being so healthy true? Head to my link to get 10 travel packs + a one-year supply of vitamin D3K2 free with your first order: drinkag1.com/k...
I've been living in northern sweden for a few years now and spend lots of time in Stockholm which is constantly ranked in the top 10 for healthiest, happiest, and city with the best quality of life in the world. I also saw that one documentary that show Sweden is being hit less hard by the obesity epidemic that other countries are facing. So how do the citizens of Sweden capital Stockholm have it so much easier to live healthy lives, especially compared to us in North America. Lets explore it today!
We all know the stereotype of Swedish people being the most beautiful people on earth, we picture tall blonde athletic people. Now it's a big diverse country, HOWEVER I will say the stereotype lives up. After staying up late one night binging KZfaq documentary's I was watching one about obesity around the world and noticed that as obesity spread, it seemed to impact sweden less...which got me thinking. Amongst our more sedentary lives and constant fast food commercials, how has Sweden citizens managed to stay lean athletic and healthy? I've noticed a few difference between sweden and North America, and here's what I think is causing this. Enjoy!

I spent a month in Sweden when I came for a summer school. They gave us a month gym membership with a lots of classes. It ıs the reason why I started going to gym afterwards. I was walking to the classes and was eating a healthy bowl as lunch, it was cheapest and most accessible thing to eat. The student loft was so practable as well, I cooked a lot - which I haven’t done much in my dorm during the university. We partied almost every night during the month. I lost 5kg in that month without trying and spent the most peaceful month of my life. I missed it so much. No surprise that people happier and healtier there.

Stockholm is one of the places I'd consider moving to. I have a relative who lives in Berlin, Germany. When I visit her, I sometimes visit other European cities. The quality of life is like night and day compared to the United States. Their culture(s) is definitely focused on the well-being of people. The western world really needs to take note.

Stockholm is amazing, and one of the few places I'm thinking of relocating to at some point. Especially the work-life balance - you're expected to go to work between 8 and 10 AM and leave after 8 hours. And have a lunch _break_ not work while you eat. Also, the vacations are long and you are expected to take them. You won't be punished for taking time off to recollect and rest.

In regards to vacation, most Nordic countries it's actually legally required that employees take their vacations, as the employer can get serious legal trouble/fines if they don't. Most people get 4-5 weeks a year, and it's encouraged to take 3 weeks back to back in summer during June/July which is called "common vacation" or similarly named in each country.

My fiance is always talking about how he has vacation time he has to use up for the year. You'd never find that in America, companies advertise PTO and paid vacation as a job benefit. I love knowing that I can see my fiance for weeks at a time when I visit bc he HAS to take time off and use it up for the year. His employer tells him he's GOT to take vacation time bc he hasn't used enough.

Hi Keltie! About massage benefits from you emplyer in Sweden. Most people get about 3000 sek/year in "health benefit" and you can choose what to do with that money, tho what you choose must be on the ok list. You can choose to buy massage or a gym membership, PT-hours, classes at a yoga shala, runningshoes, a laughing class aso. the last few years also tickets to the theater since cultural experiences is also concidered as health beneficial. My partner allways choose to put his money to classic swedish massage and gets about 5 sessions a year "for free" . As a freelancer I don´t get any health benefits from work...

Your video almost made me buy the flight tickets to Sweden immediately. Then I remembered I’m saving for mortgage. 😂 But as soon as I get some extra money I’m flying back to Sweden for sure. I spent a month in Lund and walked around Malmö a lot as well and I just fell in love. For good two months I was convinced my boyfriend and I would move there and I actually had been even looking into the local real estate market and picked a few apartments for us to move into. 😅 I’ve been to Stockholm, too, but somehow the southern Sweden was just it for me. Plus, I appreciated how close it was to Denmark. I come from Prague, Czechia and we do have some healthy habits common with Scandinavia but just the mentality of Scandinavian people blows me away every time I’m there. Thank you for reminding me!

To add onto the sidewalks (which, btw, rarely end in some nonsensical way), the city is very well lit. Something one can take for granted until you visit a city like, say, Strasbourg, which seems to half light or even barely bother to light many of their streets including the main ones. And with holidays, your employer by law (unless you have a collective agreement that says otherwise) has to let you take 4 weeks off in a row during June through August.

Stockholm has easy accessibility to nearly any kind of sport. They have a sportspark in Ladugård which is packed with dog walkers, runners, skiers, football, frisbee golf etc. They also have a lot of family happenings which gets kids into sports and activity at a very young age. Also, next time you're in town you have to go try the walnut bun at Fabrique. And maybe one of Jafar's donuts on Drottningsgatan (phenomenal, freshly baked). 😻

Man ,the work culture in the U.S. needs to step up. Or maybe a better phrase is chill out and shift gears. Rest really is vital for us as people but we're discouraged from it for the sake of being/seeming productive. For all the advances we're making in society, you'd think we'd take after Stockholm's example by now. Maybe some states are, but I don't know. Anyway, great video, Keltie!

They explained also that every office has to comply with rules stipulating how much light there should be (a lot) and sitting positions, chairs desks, everything was tip top. And standing desks ( this was in 2003 when they weren’t a thing yet). It’s only recently I understand why they all stood up after lunch. Seriously healthy place. It’s the place I took up running after hating it for so long. The healthy bug definitely but me there. I lived in Paris straight after. A totally different experience 😅

Small clarification: most jobs don't come specifically with massages for benefit, you get an allowance of around 3000-5000SEK (~$300-500 USD) per year which can be spent on any kind of health or physical activity. For example, gym membership, massage, spa day, ski passes, etc.... You just can't use it to buy physical items.

I think there are a lot of similarities with European countries in general, specially Mediterranean countries...walkable cities, cheap gyms, protein and fat rich healthy foods, work life balance (holidays and midday breaks to have a coffee and something to eat before lunch) and overall their whole approach to food and social life. It is is so important...I think it changes completely how you relate to food and drink, and everything. It is like such an event...that helps you focus on the pleasure of it and enjoy it with people....like there's no need to overeat or binge or restrict. Food and free time and social activities have such a different connotation. And being outdoors plays a huge role as well

Maybe it’s where I live but we have gyms really nice like that in the USA too (I live in Florida) and the prices are super reasonable. I pay about 35$/month for a great one. I love the amount of walking and nature there! Gorgeous

In my little town in Sweden many people are obese, perhaps because it's a very small town with heavy industry, many work shifts , lot's of pizzeria places . I used to live in a posh town in the southern part of Sweden, there obese people where very few. When i moved back home i immediately noticed a huge difference when it comes to obesity,here almost everyone are chubby.

Living in Sydney we have alot of what Sweden/Stockholm has (healthcare safety net, loads of gyms, city parks and greenspaces and an amazing range of healthy food from everywhere in the world) but we also have hot summers, no snow and the best city beaches. Maybe visit us if you feel lie a beachy holiday one day xx

We also have a law, for those walk across that do not have a lights. A walker has the right to pass first, a car must stop. It’s pretty important in the city, otherwise walking would be very risky and you’d have to stop all the time~ it’s inconvenient for drivers but very good for the future since it promotes walking and demotes driving

I drive to the store just across the street because there is no crosswalk and they just made the street 4 lanes with a 50 mph speed limit. You can't get across it and unless you walk more than a mile and a half down to the closest crosswalk, driving is the only option.

I smoked four packets a day for several years. Then I quit smoking and started with snus. Like half a dosa per day. It's like a tenth the cost. Could have quit tobacco all together but wanted something to treat my self with still. :D

the thing about bike-friendliness is that it comes more naturally in flat places. Copenhagen and Malmö (like the rest of southernmost sweden) are really flat, they're natural bike havens! i'm from a valley city which has expanded up on the hillsides all around, so the bikeability is really sub-par.

Hi Keltie, I loved this video, as a video itself and the way you presented it. I am Hungarian and lived in Stockholm for 7 years - and I hated it so much that I literally got sick of it: cancer. It's beautiful and yes the parks and waters in the city itself are nice, the water quality is great and there are a few other positive points. However, actually living there year around when you come from another type of culture, is different. A girl from Canada with a typical Nordic look will not experience what a black-haired, tanned girl from more South and from an ex-Eastern Block country will (that time I did look like a Gypsy in the summer). But I don't want to go into this too much. It's enough to say that the lack of sunshine and vitamin D, the dark, gloomy climate, can be a huge stressor for those who can't deal with it by their genetics. I loathed the low energy vibes, the boredom, lack of social and cultural life, the "everyone for themselves" mentality, the "lagom" and the "Jantelagen" when you are not supposed to stand out with your clothes, thinking, behavior, mood, creativity, achievements etc. For me, everything just felt lukewarm and lifeless, compared to the majority of the countries in Europe. And there were a few more issues but this is not a place to talk politics and such. I escaped back to Central Europe where I like the vibrant life much better, but I know there are people for whom the Swedish slow-motion life and the physical climate fit perfectly, so it's great for them. For a short visit, I would go back every once in a while gladly, Sweden is an excellent photo subject. Oh, almost forgot: the extremely high amount of sugar they consume doesn't make them super healthy, though. Plus: "one of the happiest and healthiest countries on Earth" consumes a horrible amount of antidepressants as well.

Hi! I am from Borlänge but I live in Kungsbacka and work in Gothenburg as they are cities nearby each other. You definitely should go visit Gothenburg. The atmosphere is so much calmer than Stockholm. Stockholm is actually my least favorite city in Sweden. But that is just MY opinion :D Running on the west coast is so beautiful. :) Love your videos.

I’ve always found it so interesting how non-Swedes that go to Stockholm say that there’s less stress. As a Swede who grew up in a smaller city (less than 100k people live here) I find Stockholm to be so stressful! Like I always wanna go back home after a few hours. Gothenburg is better but still stressful, I also prefer the people there, much nicer and friendly and less stressed out compared to people in Stockholm. Have you every considered visiting smaller cities in Sweden? ☺️

Yeah in norway it is a given that you can walk a bit, i mean 10 minutes to walk isnt a big deal at all. While i was shocked to learn that even if your shop is 10 minutes away by walking American ms drive. That was when i realized how much i actually walk. To and from a bus stop is already 10 minutes of walking. Dogwalks, housework on your feet, dancing when cooking and cleaning. And this is all without adding workouts into the count. Walking is great🙌

Having money relative to others. that is what makes you healthy or not. if you have money you can work less hours which allows you to have time to walk, allows you to have less stress; prepare and plan your meals, etc... Also allows you to have more time to do physical activity, more time to do fun things which makes you mentally better.... All comes from money and the ability to have things with less effort.

IF you go to Stockholm, u will notice: 1 Everyone speaks English, almost 90% of the Swedish population speaks english as 2 language 2 Taking public transportation and walking and bicycle is always better than taxi or car in the city 3 Swedes are very introvert and hard to know and doesn't like meaningless (american) "smalltalk"..but if u get a Swedish friend u get a honest caring real friend for life 4 Sweden is quiet..VERY quiet..i have asian friends who almost gets panic how quiet it is in Sweden even in crowds and in citys. But the quietness is good for your brain and health so dont shout and talk to loud when u there

The health benefit about 5 massages a year is more about you get up to 5000 (or is it 6000 now?) SEK a year for "friskvård" (health activities). BUT it has to come through your employer, meaning that it's a dedcutible expense for companies. If your employer decides not to have that, you can't get it directly from the government. So it's more a tax free expense for companies, not accessible for all citizens.
