四个月的时间 我让父亲的糖尿病有所好转

发布时间:2019-11-08  编辑:查字典英语网小编

Most of us know that eating healthily is important, but many people don't fully appreciate the importance of fuelling their body correctly until it is too late. One person who's seen the true transformational power of fresh, nutrient-rich, multitasking foods is Bonnie Stowell, chef and founder of food delivery service Spring Green London.

大多数人都知道吃得健康很重要,但很多人在为时已晚之前,并没有完全认清给身体注入正确能量的重要性。邦妮·斯托维尔真正见证过新鲜、营养丰富的多重食物带来的真正转变力,她是外卖服务伦敦春季畅青美食(Spring Green London)的主厨和创始人。

Bonnie realised that she wanted to work in food following a health scare that turned her father's life around.

邦妮意识到她想继续从事让他父亲从疾病中康复的食物工作。

四个月的时间 我让父亲的糖尿病有所好转1

"My Dad has always looked really healthy but after divorcing from his wife he was just working really really hard and had a terrible, terrible diet. He wasn't overeating but he'd buy pre-packaged food, put it in the microwave at the end of the day and that was all he had - completely full of sugar and no fresh vegetables. And then for lunch he'd just go to the local café and have a bacon sandwich on white bread with ketchup, all washed down with around eight coffees, all with sugar. "

"我的父亲看起来总是很健康,但自从和妻子离婚之后,他就全身心的投入到工作中,很拼命,而且饮食习惯也变得很差。他没有暴饮暴食,但会买一些预先包装好的食物,每天晚上放到微波炉中加热,他就吃这么多东西--全都是糖,而且没有新鲜蔬菜。至于午饭,他会去当地的咖啡馆,吃加了番茄酱的白面包培根三明治,然后喝8杯咖啡,也全都是糖。"

Water wasn't a concept for him - I don't think he ever drank water! And that was what he did for 15 years straight. We'd occasionally make him a salad but I think he was just taking it to work and throwing it away. Basically he just wouldn't even try to eat healthily.

他没有喝水的概念--我甚至觉得他从来都没喝过水!而且连续15年来他都是这么干的。我们会偶尔给他做沙拉,但我觉得他只是把沙拉带去上班的地方、然后扔掉。基本来说,他根本不想尝试吃得健康。

The turning point

转折点

Everything came to a head for Bonnie's dad when he got diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.

当邦妮的父亲被诊断得了2型糖尿病时,所有这些问题都不得不解决了。

'It got to the point where he was really lethargic and couldn't sleep properly. Then, out of the blue, he was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. We were all really shocked, including dad. It's a shame things had to go that far but it was definitely a massive wakeup call for him.'

"那时候他总是没精打采,而且还睡不踏实。之后,很突然地,他被诊断出患了2型糖尿病。我们当时真的很吃惊,父亲自己也惊呆了。这是件很遗憾的事情,但却切切实实的唤醒了他。"

Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes and is generally associated with individuals who are overweight or obese. It occurs when the body doesn't produce enough insulin to function properly, or the body's cells don't react to insulin, meaning that the glucose stays in the blood and isn't used as fuel for energy.

2型糖尿病是糖尿病最常见的一种形式,通常与超重或肥胖有关。当身体没有分泌足够的胰岛素以正常运作或是身体细胞对胰岛素不做出反应时,人们就会患2型糖尿病,意味着葡萄糖停留在了血液中,而不是成为能量的来源。

Plan of action

行动计划

'The doctors weren't that helpful really - they just told him to take medication and be a bit healthier. So I did some of research into what we could do to help and ended up completely changing his diet.'

"医生并没有起到多大作用--他们只是告诉他记得吃药、多吃健康的食物。所以我做了一些我们可以做的研究,最终完全改变了他的饮食。"
