David Tillman says overweight people are at greater risk for non-infectious diseases like diabetes, heart disease and some cancers. "Diabetes is shooting to very high rates in the United States and across Europe. Heart disease is a major cause of mortality in the Western countries. Unfortunately when people become industrialized, if they adopt this Western diet, they are going to have these same health impacts, and in some cases if you are Asian, you have them more severely than even happens in the West." China, he says, is an example where the number of diabetes cases has jumped.__________________________Tilman说,超重者患上糖尿病、心脏病和某些癌症这类非感染性疾病的风险更大. "糖尿病在美国和欧洲各地的发病率非常高.心脏病是西方国家人口死亡的重要原因.不幸的是,当人们逐步进入工业化,如果他们也采用这种西方饮食,他们就会受到同样的健康影响.并且在某些情况下,亚洲人受到的健康影响会比西方人更为严重." 他说,中国就是一个例子,该国的糖尿病数量就已上升._______________________
