Bradley has studied the health of over 8,000 Japanese-American men
Bradley已經(jīng)研究了8000多個(gè)日裔美國(guó)人的健康狀況,
analysing the impact of immigration on life expectancy.
分析了移民環(huán)境對(duì)預(yù)期壽命的影響。
So, you've got you know a population of Japanese Americans in Hawaii
因此,對(duì)已經(jīng)掌握了在夏威夷的日裔美國(guó)人,
that evolved eating different foods in Japan
發(fā)展了與日本不同的飲食,
and then, after a couple of generations on a typical Western diet,
接著,在一代人處于西方飲食條件下,
they're at higher risk, I think,
我認(rèn)為,他們對(duì)比
for certain diseases like diabetes than are populations that grew up eating western food.
如糖尿病這樣的疾病,所處的風(fēng)險(xiǎn),要比西方人更高。
The American lifestyle appears to be far more detrimental to people of Japanese descent than other Americans.
美國(guó)生活方式,對(duì)日本人后裔損的害程度似乎遠(yuǎn)比其他美國(guó)人來得高。
Having evolved to thrive on a low-calorie diet, to survive periods of famine,
正在蓬勃發(fā)展的低熱量飲食,饑餓期生存,
it seems their bodies are simply not suited to the abundance of food.
看來他們的身體根本不能與豐富的食品相匹配。
It's a case of they've got good genes,
這是因?yàn)樗麄冇辛肆己玫幕颍?/p>
but they're in the wrong environment
然而他們生活在不好的環(huán)境中,
so, very much... healthy ageing is a gene environment interaction,
因此,健康長(zhǎng)壽是基因環(huán)境的相互作用,
so there's many changes that have occurred
所以會(huì)有很多變化,
across human populations that grew up in certain circumstances
發(fā)生在有些特殊環(huán)境中成長(zhǎng)的人群,
that affect modern-day populations.
影響現(xiàn)代人群。
It's a lesson that needs to be heeded
這是需要加以注意的教訓(xùn),
even in the places where people live longer than anywhere else on earth.
即使是生活在比其他地方時(shí)間更長(zhǎng)的地方。
