How healthy is YOUR country? Indonesians sleeps he most while Japanese are the most unhealthy eaters

According to survey conducted by market research organisation GfK, questioned more than 28,000 in 23 countries on which activities they regularly do to maintain their physical health. For the survey, GfK interviewed people aged 15 or older in 23 countries either online or face-to-face in summer 2014. Overall, people focus on getting more sleep rather than taking vitamins to be healthy, a new poll by GfK found.  



Sleep, healthy food and exercise topped the list, while cosmetic procedures, going for a massage or spa treatment and alternative therapies were the least popular. Women across the globe were more likely to get more sleep, eat healthily, go to the dentist, spend more time with friends and family. But the poll found men around the world were in the lead when it came to exercise.


Mexico and China have the highest number of people who exercise on a regular basis (68 per cent and 67 per cent), while Japan and Russia have fewer fitness fanatics (39 per cent and 40 per cent).
The countries included Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Poland, Russia, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, UK, Ukraine and the USA.
