The first thing that needs to be said is that except for a very small number of people who are prone to obesity, the idea why Cantonese or southerners like to eat late night snacks but not gain weight while northerners eat late night snacks and get fat is a false proposition. People everywhere are fat or thin for a reason, let’s talk about it below.

First of all, the physiques of southerners and northerners are the same, and the cause of obesity is not between southerners and northerners, but a matter of personal eating habits and living habits.

As someone who was born and raised in Hainan and went to college in the Northeast for several years, I would like to say that there are many fat people even in Hainan, but not everyone in the Northeast is fat. It can be seen that region is not the determining factor of whether a person is fat or thin, but living habits and eating habits.

The eating habits of Cantonese or southerners tend to be light. Many friends from the north have no big obstacles when it comes to diet when they come to the south or Guangdong, but they always feel that it is too light. While southerners have a light diet, due to the hot weather, they eat less and more vegetables. Cantonese people pay attention to drinking soup and eating one essence instead of too much.

What needs to be said about this is that the vegetables that southerners refer to are green leaves with green leaves that are stir-fried alone or eaten in water, unlike many northerners who refer to vegetables as potatoes, beans and other ingredients stir-fried with meat. There are many kinds of late-night snacks in Guangdong or the South, but not everyone likes to eat late-night snacks. Most people rarely eat late-night snacks, and many southerners only eat sugar water, porridge, pasta and other late-night snacks with less calories and too much quantity. Small food. People in the South who eat late-night snacks or eat a lot of meat or high-calorie foods are also very fat.

In comparison, the eating habits of people in the north focus on oil, salt and meat. Because of the cold climate in the north, people's eating habits focus on oil, salt and meat. Moreover, northerners’ late-night snacks mainly include barbecue, stir-fry and other high-calorie foods, and they often drink alcohol during late-night snacks. This leads to obesity in this group of people.
