Next we will talk about the two sections highlighting information about nutrients on the food label.
下面我們要討論一下食品標簽上關于營養物質的兩塊顯著信息
In general you can think of the nutrient sections in two different parts.
大體上你可以認為營養成分由兩部分組成
The first part which is highlighted in our example in yellow on the next slide,
第一部分是下張課件例子中的黃色區域
are the group of nutrients that you should limit.
這部分是我們應該控制攝入的營養成分
These nutrients are total fat,
這些成分全部是脂肪
which include saturated fat and trans fat, cholesterol and sodium.
包括飽和脂肪,轉化脂肪,膽固醇和鈉
In the united states most people consume adequate amounts or too much of these nutrients.
大多數美國人過多食用這些營養物質
And they are also linked to an increased risk of chronic diseases.
它們還會增加慢性病的發病幾率
Such chronic diseases are heart disease high blood pressure and some cancers.
如心臟病,高血壓和癌癥
The other group of nutrients which are highlighted in blue on the next slide
營養成分的另一部分就是下張課件中的藍色區域
are ones that you should be sure to get enough of.
這些物質是我們必須充足獲取的
They are dietary fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium and iron.
它們包括食用纖維,維生素A,維生素C,鈣和鐵
Opposite to the first group,
與上類物質相反
this group of nutrients are ones that Americans tend to not get enough of.
美國人對這些物質的食用有待加強
So you should aim to consume adequate amounts.
因此我們要注意注入足量的此類物質
These nutrients can reduce risk of some diseases or conditions.
它們能夠減緩一些疾病的發病率和發病條件
Examples are a lack of calcium that can lead to osteoporosis
例如,缺鈣會引起骨質疏松癥
and adequate fiber is linked to healthy bowel function.
充足的維生素能夠保證健全的腸功能
Now let's take a look at these nutrients on the food label.
現在讓我們看一下食品標簽上的營養物
Shown here in yellow total fat, saturated fat,
這里黃色區域是脂肪總量,包括飽和脂肪
trans fat, cholesterol and sodium are shown here with the amounts of each nutrient listed beside it.
轉化脂肪,膽固醇和鈉,旁邊分別列舉了其含量
Again you should aim to consume limited amounts of this group of nutrients.
再次說明你應該有節制地食用這些物質
The macaroni and cheese example has fairly large amounts of these nutrients in this section.
例中的通心粉奶酪含有大量這些物質
Highlighted in blue are the nutrients that you should aim to consume adequate amounts.
藍色區域是你應該食用足量的物質
These are dietary fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium and iron.
它們是食用纖維,維生素A,維生素C,鈣和鐵
This example of macaroni and cheese is not a good source of dietary fiber,
例子中的通心粉奶酪不能提供足量食用纖維
as you can see there are zero grams of fiber in this product.
你可以看到此產品中含有的纖維量是0克
Understanding how to know if you are eating too much or too little of
一旦你了解了每日攝入量百分比
the nutrients mentioned is easier once you understand the percent daily value.
你就能更容易的理解如何知道自己是否攝入過多或過少的上述物質了
We will discuss the percent daily values just after the footnote section.
我們在介紹完補充說明一欄后就會討論每日攝入量百分比
