This episode focuses on Vermont's notably low obesity rate, the second lowest in the United States out of all the mainland states.


The discussion begins with some context and then expands on the state's outdoor lifestyle, highlighting how its natural beauty and terrain encourage an active lifestyle among residents. Vermont's cities and towns are praised for their walkability, contributing to the population's overall physical health.


The episode explores the health-conscious mindset of Vermonters, who prioritise wellness and healthy eating, influenced partly by the state's small population density that allows for close-knit communities with access to fresh, local foods. Economic factors are also examined, notably Vermont's lower poverty rate, which correlates with better access to quality food and health services. Environmental consciousness in Vermont is also linked.


A fun fact about Montpelier, the U.S. capital with no McDonald's, wraps up the episode, symbolising Vermont's unique approach to community health and diet.
