The Island is in good shape, few Sardinians are obese or overweight

Sardinians are among the fittest in Italy. The Island is in first place with only 37% excess weight (the accumulation of body fat). Only three people in 10 are overweight and Sardinia is in the top five in this ranking. Less than one person in ten is obese (8.1%), with the Island below the national average of 10.4 and far from the excesses of Molise (17.9%).

The data are reported by the Passi surveillance system of the Ministry of Health for the two-year period 2022-2023 relating to weight and height of 18-69 year olds. The attention of health workers to the problem is low, according to the data, less than half of the interviewees in excess weight report having received advice from their doctor to lose weight.

Attention is directed mainly to obese people, much less to overweight people. But even in this case the situation in Sardinia is among the best in Italy.
