(单词翻译:单击)

It turns out there is something in the food we eat
原来在我们摄取的食物中有种成分
that affects how much IGF-1 our bodies produce.
会影响体内产生类胰岛素一号生长因子的数量
That something is protein.
这种成分就是蛋白质
When we eat a lot of protein,
如果我们摄取大量的蛋白质
our cells get locked in go-go mode.
我们的细胞就会一直处于加油模式
So it's basically like slamming your foot on the accelerator,
就像我们踩了一脚油门
- saying, "Go! Go! Go!" Is that right? - Exactly.
-大喊加油 加油 对吗 -对
It's pushing the cell to burn fuel.
就是不断促使细胞消耗能量
In go-go mode,
在加油模式里
the body is more susceptible to some cancers and diabetes,
人们更容易得癌症和糖尿病
because your cells are growing too fast
因为你的细胞生长太快
for damage to be efficiently repaired.
以致原有的损伤得不到有效的修复
So it's like driving your car all the time
就像你一直开车
and never taking it to the mechanic.
却从来不把它拿去检修
Right, so that's the key, basically, is to somehow find a way
对 就是这样 要找到一个方法
to switch your body from going, "Broom, broom, broom,"
把你的身体从加油模式
into a sort of repair mode,
切换到修复模式
"Look after me, make my DNA better."
好好照顾我 修复好我的DNA
Exactly.
没错
So, how do you reduce your IGF-1?
那怎样降低类胰岛素一号生长因子水平呢
