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.

此外,现在出现的还有糖尿病的流行,

这占到了成人的2/3和儿童的15%。
02:09
to me is that diabetes糖尿病 has

真正令我担忧的是在过去的10年里,

糖尿病的患病比例上升了70%,

这是按州统计的患糖尿病的人口人数,
从85、86、87年开始——

02:28
from the CDCCDC website网站 --
'88, '89, '90, '91 -- you

又是一个新的组别——92、93、94、95、96年,
02:36
'97, '98, '99, 2000, 2001
-- it gets得到 worse更差. We're
57

kind of devolving下放. (Laughter笑声)
58
136000
1381
情况越来越糟糕,我们在某种程度上在退化。
02:46
Now what can we do about this?
Well, you know, the
59
141000
2976
对于这些我们能做些什么?嗯,你知道,
02:49
diet饮食 that we've我们已经 found发现
that can reverse相反 heart
60
144000
976
我们所发现的能够阻止心脏病
02:50
disease疾病 and cancer癌症 is an Asian亚洲 diet饮食.
61
145000
1976
与癌症的饮食就是亚洲饮食。
02:52
But the people in Asia亚洲
are starting开始 to eat like we
62
147000
1976
但是现在亚洲人开始像我们一样饮食,
02:54
are, which哪一个 is why they're
starting开始 to get sick生病
63
149000
976
这也是他们开始像我们患一样的病
02:55
like we are.
64
150000
976
的原因。
02:56
So I've been working加工
with a lot of the big food餐饮
65
151000
1976
我一直与许多大的食品公司合作,
02:58
companies公司. They can make
it fun开玩笑 and sexy性感的 and hip臀部
66
153000
1976
他们能够使吃更健康的食物变得
03:00
and crunchy脆脆 and convenient方便
to eat healthier健康 foods食品,
67
155000
2381
有趣、性感、时尚、口感好以及方便。
例如——我担任麦当劳、
03:02
like -- I chair椅子 the advisory咨询
boards to McDonald's麦当劳,
68
157405
2571
03:05
and PepsiCo百事, and ConAgra康尼格拉,
and Safeway西夫韦, and soon不久
69
160000
1976
百事可乐、康尼格拉、Safeway超市的顾问委员会主席,
03:07
Del德尔 Monte蒙特, and they're
finding发现 that it's good
70
162000
2143
稍后还将担任德尔蒙特的,他们也正在
发现这是项好生意。
03:09
business商业.
71
164167
809
03:10
The salads沙拉 that you see
at McDonald's麦当劳 came来了 from
72
165000
976
你可以在麦当劳看到的沙拉就是这项工作的成果——
03:11
the work -- they're going
to have an Asian亚洲 salad沙拉. At
73
166000
1976
他们开始提供亚洲沙拉。
03:13
Pepsi百事可乐, two-thirds三分之二
of their revenue收入 growth发展 came来了
74
168000
1976
在百事可乐公司,3/2的收入增加来自
03:15
from their better foods食品.
75
170000
976
他们更好的食品。
03:16
And so if we can do that,
then we can free自由 up
76
171000
2143
而如果我们能做到这些,
我们可以将购买药物的资源解放出来,
03:18
resources资源 for buying购买 drugs毒品
that you really do need
77
173167
2809
03:21
for treating治疗 AIDS艾滋病 and HIVHIV
and malaria疟疾 and for
78
176000
2976
而将这些资源用到真正需要的治疗艾滋病、HIV、疟疾
