食物与健康:多吃有益的食物 戒除不良习惯

 　　About 51 million people have diabetes¹ in India, more than anywhere else. Simple additions and subtractions can help reduce the risk.

　　在印度，大约有51万糖尿病患者，是患病最多的国家之一。正确地选择食物，会减少罹患疾病的风险。

　　More This 应适当增加：

　　1.Broccoli² and spinach³

　　People who ate more leafy green vegetables were less likely to develop diabetes, a recent analysis of four studies showed. Adding a little more than a serving daily could cut risk by14 percent, researchers say.

　　花椰菜和菠菜。

　　最近四项研究分析显示：常吃绿叶蔬菜的人们很少患糖尿病。再加日常认真料理，可减少风险14%，研究者认为。

　　2.Fish oil

　　When overweight mice were fed fish oils, their levels of inflammation—which can lead to diabetes—dropped. Fish oil supplements may offer the same help to humans, say scientists from the University of California, San Diego, USA.

　　鱼油

　　当超重的白鼠喂食鱼油后，其导致糖尿病的炎症水平下降。鱼油对人体也有辅助作用，来自美国圣迭戈加洲大学的科学家认为。

　　3.Breast-Feeding

　　Mothers who breast-fed their newborns for as little as a month cut their own risk of developing diabetes later in life by as much as 33 percent.

　　母乳

　　研究显示： 经常用母乳喂养孩子的母亲，在以后患糖尿病的风险降低了33%。

　　Less That 应该避免

　　1.White rice

　　In a study of nearly 200,000 people, those who ate five or more cups of white rice a week were 17 percent more likely to wind up with diabetes than people who ate less than one serving a month. Surprisingly, switching to brown rice or barley⁴ was better than not eating rice at all.

　　少吃精米

　　通过对近二十万人的调查研究，每周吃五杯以上精米的人们，患糖尿病的机率要比每月少于一份者高17%，可选择吃糙米或大麦以代替精米。

　　2.Staying up late

　　Sleeping less than six hours per night can increase your risk of developing diabetes by 30 percent by impairing⁵ your body’s ability to regulate⁶ blood sugar, says a review of ten studies.

　　不要熬夜

　　对十项研究的综合显示：每晚睡眠少于六个小时，会让患糖尿病的机率增加30%，同时损害体内调节血糖的能力。

　　3.Smoking

　　Having even a few cigarettes a day can raise your risk of diabetes by 30 percent or more.

　　不要抽烟

　　每天抽烟者，会让患糖尿病的机率增加30%以上。
