In recent years scientists have awakened to the fact that when kids eat too much sugar, it can cause a lot more harm than just cavities. We now know that excess dietary sugar is associated with hypertension, blood lipid disorders, diabetes, obesity, and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
近年来科学家们意识到这样一个事实,当孩子吃太多的糖,它的危害不仅仅是蛀牙的问题，还可能造成更多的危害。我们现在知道,过度吃糖，会增加高血压、血脂紊乱、糖尿病、肥胖、心血管疾病的风险。
While the problems caused by dietary sugar affect everyone, they are especially concerning in children.
而食物中的糖会引起众多问题,特别是关于儿童的。
Many foods marketed for kids seem to be loaded with added sugars, and the average daily consumption of sugar is remarkably high in kids. It is now believed that sugar consumption is a leading cause of obesity in children, and is likely partially responsible for the alarming rate of type 2 diabetes we are seeing today in adolescents and young adults. (Not long ago type 2 diabetes was almost never seen before middle age.)
许多幼儿食品里面添加多余的糖,孩子平均每天消耗糖量明显偏高。而现在糖的消耗已经导致儿童肥胖问题，这也可能是我们今天看到的青少年和年轻人患二型糖尿病的风险提高的原因。(以前几乎从未见过中年以前患二型糖尿病的)。
Given the increasing incidence of cardiovascular risk factors in adolescents and young adults, experts are warning that we are facing an epidemic of premature heart disease very soon. Added sugars in kids’ diets are undoubtedly playing a big role here.
鉴于青少年和年轻的成年人患心血管疾病的风险增加,专家说,我们将很快面临早产儿心脏病流行。在儿童饮食中添加糖无疑起着巨大的作用。
In August 2016, an expert panel appointed by the American Heart Association (AHA) published a scientific statement entitled “Added Sugars and Cardiovascular Disease Risk in Children.” The panel reviewed all pertinent scientific information on the effect of added sugars in kids, and made firm recommendations on how much added sugar can be consumed by children without appreciably increasing their cardiovascular risk.
2016年8月, 美国心脏协会(AHA)的一个专家小组公布了题名为“添加糖与心血管疾病对孩子风险”的科学声明。专家组评估了添加糖对孩子产生影响的相关所有科学信息,对于孩子消耗多少添加糖不会明显增加心血管疾病的风险，提出了严格的建议。
