  • Mindfulness is more effective than simply trying to eat healthy, a study claims.

    一项研究表明,正念要比单纯的健康饮食更有效。

    Eighty people joined a study by North Carolina State University, with half designing their own diet, and half engaging in daily meditation1.

    共有80人参加乐了由北卡罗来纳州立大学发起的一项研究,其中一半参与者坚持一份设计好的饮食,而另一半人则每日进行冥想。

    The results revealed the mindfulness group lost an average of 4.2lbs - seven times the other group's average weight loss of 0.6lbs.

    结果显示,冥想组的人体重平均瘦了4.2磅,这一数字是另一组人(0.6磅)的7倍。

    It is a staggering testament2 to the power of meditation, researchers say, as the nation fights an obesity3 crisis.

    研究人员表示,这项研究证明了冥想的惊人力量--尤其是在目前美国肥胖人群数量高居不下的情况下。

    Overweight and obesity increase the risk of chronic4 diseases including hypertension, type 2 diabetes5, and cardiovascular disease.

    超重和肥胖增加了包括高血压、2型糖尿病以及心血管疾病等慢性疾病的风险。

    In recent years, mindful eating - focusing on what you see and feel in the moment to increasing one's awareness6 - has been introduced as a possible strategy for weight management.

    近些年来,“正念饮食”已被引入作为一种可能的体重管理策略,该方法强调专注于眼前看到和感觉到的东西,从而提高自己的意识。

    The main purpose of the study was to examine the effectiveness of a program called Eat Smart, Move More, Weigh Less (ESMMWL) to increase awareness of eating habits.

    这项研究是主要目的是检测一个被称之为“精食、多动、减重”项目的有效性,该项目力图提高人们对饮食习惯的意识。

    It hinges on the idea of creating a structure that will help participants change behaviors that have caused them to gain weight, or prevent weight loss.

    该项目提出了一个理念,即创建一个结构,帮助参与者改变导致自己肥胖、或者不利减肥的习惯。

    Participants take the class from a live instructor7 at the same time each week on a computer or mobile device.

    每周同一时间,参与者都会通过电脑或者手机接受一位教师的指导。

    To measure their level of mindfulness, researchers got each of the participants to fill out the Mindful Eating Questionnaire, a 28-point survey that assesses five domains8 of mindful eating.

    为了测量他们的心态水平,研究人员让每个参与者都填写了“心态饮食问卷”,该问卷用28个问题从5个领域对参与者的心态饮食进行了评估。

    Mindful eating includes paying attention to hunger and fullness cues, planning meals and snacks, eating as a singular activity as opposed to eating while doing other activities, and paying special attention to how food tastes.

    正念饮食包括注意饥饿和饱足感的原因、规划饮食和零食、将饮食作为一项专注性活动而不同时做其他事情、以及特别留心食物的味道等。

    'Results suggest that there is a beneficial association between mindful eating and weight loss,' the authors wrote in the study.

    作者们在研究中写道:“结果证明,正念饮食和减肥之间存在着一种有益的联系。”
