What's really concerning
What's really concerning
46

02:09
to me is that diabetes has
increased 70 percent in the
increased 70 percent in the
47
104000
2976
para mim é que os casos de diabetes aumentaram 70% nos
02:12
past 10 years, and this may be the first
48
107000
1976
últimos 10 anos, e esta pode ser a primeira
02:14
generation in which our kids
live a shorter life

50
111000
1976
menos que nós. Isto é lamentável, e
02:18
preventable.
51
113000
976
prevenível.
02:19
Now these are not election
returns, these are the
returns, these are the
52
114000
2976
Agora, isto não são resultados eleitorais, isto são
02:22
people -- the number
of the people who are obese

53
117000
2286
as pessoas -- o numero de pessoas que são obesas

by state, beginning in '85,
'86, '87 -- these are
'86, '87 -- these are

02:28
from the CDC website --
'88, '89, '90, '91 -- you
'88, '89, '90, '91 -- you
55
123000
3976
do website da CDC -- 88, 89, 90, 91 -- temos
02:32

'92, '93, '94, '95, '96,
'92, '93, '94, '95, '96,
56
127000
3976
uma nova categoria -- 92, 93, 94, 95, 96,
02:36
'97, '98, '99, 2000, 2001
-- it gets worse. We're

57
131000
4976
97,98,99,2000,2001 -- cada vez piora mais.
02:41
kind of devolving. (Laughter)
58
136000
1381
Nos estamos tipo a "desivoluir".
02:46
Now what can we do about this?
Well, you know, the
Well, you know, the
59
141000
2976
Agora, o que podemos fazer acerca disto? Bem, vocês sabem,
02:49
diet that we've found
that can reverse heart
that can reverse heart
60
144000
976
a dieta que nós descobrimos que pode reverter as doenças
02:50
disease and cancer is an Asian diet.
61
145000
1976
de coração e o cancro é uma dieta Asiática.
02:52
But the people in Asia
are starting to eat like we
are starting to eat like we
62
147000
1976
Mas as pessoas na Ásia estão a começar a comer como nós,
02:54
are, which is why they're
starting to get sick
starting to get sick
63
149000

essa é a razão de elas estarem a adoecer
02:55
like we are.
64

976
como nós.
02:56
So I've been working
with a lot of the big food

03:10
The salads that you see
at McDonald's came from
at McDonald's came from

03:15
from their better foods.
75

976
dos seus alimentos saudáveis.
03:16
And so if we can do that,
then we can free up
then we can free up
76
171000

E se nós conseguirmos fazer isso, então nós conseguimos libertar
recursos para comprar medicamentos que realmente vocês precisam

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Dean Ornish - Physician, authorDean Ornish is a clinical professor at UCSF and founder of the Preventive Medicine Research Institute. He's a leading expert on fighting illness -- particularly heart disease with dietary and lifestyle changes.
Why you should listen
Dr. Dean Ornish wants you to live longer, and have more fun while you're at it. He's one of the leading voices in the medical community promoting a balanced, holistic approach to health, and proving that it works. The author of Eat More, Weigh Less and several other best-selling books, Ornish is best known for his lifestyle-based approach to fighting heart disease.
His research at the Preventive Medicine Research Institute (the nonprofit he founded) clinically demonstrated that cardiovascular illnesses -- and, most recently prostate cancer -- can be treated and even reversed through diet and exercise. These findings (once thought to be physiologically implausible) have been widely chronicled in the US media, including Newsweek, for which Ornish writes a column. The fifty-something physician, who's received many honors and awards, was chosen by LIFE Magazine as one of the most influential members of his generation. Among his many pursuits, Ornish is now working with food corporations to help stop America's obesity pandemic from spreading around the globe.
