Five Factors Cut Diabetes Risk

Diabetes affects more than one in 10 Americans, with the numbers projected to keep climbing. The chronic disease can mean frequent needle jabs to test blood sugar levels—and costly treatments. And there is still no cure in sight.
糖尿病影響了超過10%的美國人，而這個數據預計會攀升。這種慢性病意味著要頻繁地接受打針來檢測血糖水平以及昂貴的治療費。并且眼下還沒有完全的治愈方法。

But recently, researchers have found that a number of lifestyle factors up the odds of getting type 2 diabetes. These factors include obesity, a poor diet, lack of physical activity, cigarettes and too much alcohol.
但是現在，研究者們發(fā)現一系列生活因素導致了Ⅱ型糖尿病。這些因素包括肥胖、不良的日常飲食，缺乏身體鍛煉，抽煙以及過度酗酒。

So, how much can cutting out these vices lower the need for insulin injections in the future? A lot, says a study in the Annals of Internal Medicine. [Jared Reis, et al., "Lifestyle factors and risk for new-onset diabetes: a population-based cohort study"
所以，戒除這些惡習能夠在多大程度上減少未來對注射胰島素的需要量？事實上有許多，這來自于一份內科醫(yī)學年鑒上的研究，

Researchers followed the health of more than 200,000 adults aged 50 to 71 over 11 years. The risk of developing diabetes over the study period was about 10 percent for men and 8 percent for women. But each healthful behavior—say, getting plenty of exercise—lowered the risk of developing diabetes by as much as 39 percent in women and 31 percent in men. The trick, of course, is to successfully motivate people
to change their current behavior in order to avoid a diabetic future.
研究者們花了11年的時間，追蹤超過20萬年齡在50到70歲之間的成年人的健康狀況。這份研究表明，在跟蹤調查期間能發(fā)展為糖尿病的幾率男性占了10%，女性占了8%。但每一個健康的行為，比如得到充分的鍛煉，都會降低得糖尿病的風險，女性降低了39%而男性降低了31%。當然，這個詭計的目的其實是為了鼓勵人們成功改變他們現在的習慣，以避免未來得糖尿病的危險。
