不知不觉变胖子: 你一天吃了多少糖？
英语课
Do you have any idea how much sugar you're eating? It's probably a lot more than you think.
你知道你一天吃了多少糖吗？结果可能远远超过你的想象。
As this shocking graphic 1 reveals, millions of us are unwittingly eating everyday foods packed with sugar - and getting fatter in the process.
这张令人震惊的图片显示，成千上万的人对我们每天吃了多少含糖的食物是毫不知情的——慢慢的我们越来越胖。
While some culprits, such as Coca-Cola and ice cream are well known (and used here for comparison purposes), there are many other less obvious foods - such as pasta sauce, soup and so-called healthy granola - that are loaded with the white stuff.
然而一些罪魁祸首，像我们熟知的可口可乐和冰淇淋（用在这里是为了比较），还有许多其他不太明显的食物——例如意大利面酱，汤汁和被称作很健康的麦片——都含糖量很高。
不知不觉变胖子: 你一天吃了多少糖？
For example, a 500g jar of Dolmio bolognaise sauce contains more than six cubes of sugar - the same as a Mars bar.
例如，500g的肉酱汁的含糖量超过六立方——和玛士棒一样。
And Heinz tomato soup is on par 2 with Bulmer's ciderin the sweetness stakes, with five cubes.
而亨氏番茄汤在甜分占量上同布尔墨的酒一样，有五立方糖。
Even a ‘healthy' fruit such as a mango contains nine cubes. However the sugars in milk, vegetables and pieces of fruit (as opposed to fruit juice), including dried fruit, do not wreak 3 as much havoc 4.
甚至“健康”的水果，例如芒果也含有九个糖立方。然而在牛奶，蔬菜还有水果片（不是果汁）中的糖分，包括水果干，没有太大的损害。
More and more evidence suggests that too much sugar is contributing to the obesity 5 and diabetes 6 epidemic 7.
越来越多的证据表明过多的糖分导致肥胖和糖尿病。
It is the sheer quantity of sugar that we consume that creates the problem, says Roy Taylor, professor of medicine and metabolism 8 at Newcastle University.
纽卡斯尔大学医学和代谢专业的罗伊泰勒教授说，是我们消耗糖分的绝对数量引起的问题。
‘Sugar calories slip down so easily and lead to weight gain.’
“糖的热量很容易吸收导致体重增加。”
The World Health Organisation 9 (WHO) recommends no more than 10 per cent of a person's daily energy should come from free sugars - those that are added to processed foods and drinks, but also those found naturally in honey, syrups 10 and fruit juices.
世界卫生组织（WHO）建议外部糖分摄入不超过人体每天能量的1/10——那些被添加到加工食品和饮料里，还有那些发现在蜂蜜、糖浆和果汁里面的天然糖分。
That equates 11 to around 50g or 10 cubes a day - easily reached with a bottle of fizzy drink.
这就相当于一天50g或十个方糖——很容易就达到一杯碳酸饮料的含糖量了。
However, the UN agency advises that people aim for no more than five per cent - 25g or around six teaspoons 12 - to achieve the biggest health benefits.
然而，联合国机构建议人们的目标不要超过百分之五—25g或六茶匙——能达到最大的健康效益。
