Now there is an epidemic of obesity: two-thirds of adults and 15 percent of kids.
此外，現在出現的還有糖尿病的流行，這占到了成人的2/3和兒童的15%。
What's really concerning to me is that diabetes has increased 70 percent in the past 10 years, and this may be the first generation in which our kids live a shorter life span than we do.
真正令我擔憂的是在過去的10年里，糖尿病的患病比例上升了70%，而這可能將首次出我們下一代的孩子們的壽命將會短于我們。
That's pitiful, and it's preventable. Now these are not election returns, these are the people -- the number of the people who are obese by state,
這很讓人痛心，但又是可以預防的。現在大家看到的不是選舉結果，這是按州統計的患糖尿病的人口人數，
beginning in '85, '86, '87 -- these are from the CDC website -- '88, '89, '90, '91 --
從85、86、87年開始—— 數字來源是美國疾病控制中心的網站——現在是88、89、90、91年——
you get a new category -- '92, '93, '94, '95, '96, '97, '98, '99, 2000, 2001 -- it gets worse. We're kind of devolving.
又是一個新的組別——92、93、94、95、96年，到97、98、99、2000、2001年——情況越來越糟糕，我們在某種程度上在退化。
Now what can we do about this? Well, you know, the diet that we've found that can reverse heart disease and cancer is an Asian diet.
對于這些我們能做些什么？嗯，你知道，我們所發現的能夠阻止心臟病與癌癥的飲食就是亞洲飲食。
But the people in Asia are starting to eat like we are, which is why they're starting to get sick like we are.
但是現在亞洲人開始像我們一樣飲食，這也是他們開始像我們患一樣的病的原因。
So I've been working with a lot of the big food companies.
我一直與許多大的食品公司合作，
They can make it fun and sexy and hip and crunchy and convenient to eat healthier foods,
他們能夠使吃更健康的食物變得有趣、性感、時尚、口感好以及方便。
like -- I chair the advisory boards to McDonald's, and PepsiCo, and ConAgra, and Safeway, and soon Del Monte, and they're finding that it's good business.
例如——我擔任麥當勞、百事可樂、康尼格拉、Safeway超市的顧問委員會主席，稍后還將擔任德爾蒙特的，他們也正在發現這是項好生意。
The salads that you see at McDonald's came from the work -- they're going to have an Asian salad.
你可以在麥當勞看到的沙拉就是這項工作的成果——他們開始提供亞洲沙拉。
At Pepsi, two-thirds of their revenue growth came from their better foods.
在百事可樂公司，3/2的收入增加來自他們更好的食品。
And so if we can do that, then we can free up resources for buying drugs that you really do need for treating AIDS and HIV and malaria and for preventing avian flu. Thank you.
而如果我們能做到這些，我們可以將購買藥物的資源解放出來，而將這些資源用到真正需要的治療艾滋病、HIV、瘧疾 以及預防禽流感之中。感謝各位。
