研究：吃飯?zhí)�快太飽易肥�?/a>

　　People who eat quickly until full are three times more likely to be overweight, a problem exacerbated by the availability of fast food and the decline of orderly dining habits, Japanese researchers said on Wednesday.

　　The findings, published in the British Medical Journal, highlight how eating styles, and not just what or how much is eaten, can contribute to an obesity epidemic fueled by the spread of Western-style affluence in many parts of the world.

　　The World Health Organization classifies around 400 million people as obese, 20 million of them under the age of five. The condition raises the risk of diseases like type 2 diabetes and heart problems.

　　For their study, Hiroyasu Iso and colleagues at Osaka University asked more than 3,000 Japanese volunteers aged 30 to 69 about their eating. About half of the men and a little more than half of the women said they ate until full. About 45 percent of the men and 36 percent of the women said they ate quickly.

　　Those who said they ate until full and ate quickly were three times more likely to be fat than people in the "not eating until full and not eating quickly" group, the researchers found.

　　They cited as causes both the availability of cheap food in big portions and habits like watching television while eating.

　　To counteract the "supra-additive effect" of speedy or glut eating among children prone to obesity, parents should encourage them to eat slowly and in calm surroundings, the study found.
日本研究人員于本周三稱，吃飯快且習(xí)慣吃到飽的人肥胖幾率為細(xì)嚼慢咽者的三倍。如今，快餐的盛行和不規(guī)律的飲食習(xí)慣導(dǎo)致肥胖問題日益嚴(yán)重。

    由于西式飲食的日益流行，肥胖正在世界很多地區(qū)蔓延。而該研究則主要探討了飲食方式對(duì)于肥胖流行病的影響，這其中不僅包括吃什么和吃多少的問題。該研究結(jié)果在《英國醫(yī)學(xué)期刊》上發(fā)表。

    根據(jù)世界衛(wèi)生組織的統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)據(jù)，目前全球約有4億人存在肥胖問題，其中有兩千萬人為不滿5歲的兒童。肥胖還會(huì)增加患二型糖尿病和心臟病等疾病的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。

    日本大阪大學(xué)的磯博康博士及其同事對(duì)3千多名志愿者的飲食習(xí)慣進(jìn)行了調(diào)查，這些人的年齡年齡在30歲至69歲之間。其中約一半男性和略多于一半的女性稱他們吃飯時(shí)習(xí)慣吃到飽，約45%的男性和36%的女性稱自己吃飯很快。

    研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，吃飯快且習(xí)慣吃到飽的人肥胖的幾率為“細(xì)嚼慢咽且不吃那么飽”的人的三倍。

    研究人員認(rèn)為，導(dǎo)致肥胖的主要原因是大量廉價(jià)食品的流行和不良的進(jìn)食習(xí)慣，比如吃飯時(shí)看電視。

    研究指出，為了避免兒童吃飯過快或過量造成的“超相加效應(yīng)”，家長應(yīng)提醒孩子們?cè)谶M(jìn)食時(shí)細(xì)嚼慢咽，并讓他們?cè)诎察o的環(huán)境中進(jìn)食。
