食品伙伴網訊 據外媒報道,近來美國人攝取的卡路里越來越少,但是肥胖率卻越來越高。分析稱,這是由于美國人的熱量攝取減少了,但是相應的身體活動量減少,造成體重仍然上漲。
據報道,在過去十年中,美國人都在設法減少卡路里的攝入量,卡路里的總量減少,一般人都在減少熱量攝取,他們最少選擇的食品種類是附加糖和軟飲料。
越來越多的美國人現在被認為是肥胖而不是超重,這似乎表示美國人中的大胖子現在變得更胖。華盛頓大學副教授帕克(Yikyung Park)稱,很明顯美國的肥胖率上升了,而且會繼續(xù)穩(wěn)定地上升。
部分原文報道如下:
Americans are getting some frustrating nutrition news right now: We've managed to cut calorie intake nationally over the last decade, but our obesity rates are going up-outpacing our overweight rates in general. The problem seems to be that everyone's okay with consuming less, as long as they don't have to do more.
Lazy, right?
So the good news is that overall calorie consumption is down. The average person is consuming less, and the category they're consuming the least of is added sugars and sodas.
