Fast Food & Strokes 速食與中風

[閱讀內容]
The good news is, strokes can be treated(v.治療), and these days(最近), they claim(v.宣稱) fewer American lives than they did, say, 20 or 30 years ago. Now, several factors(n.因素) can increase your risk of having a stroke: smoking, obesity(n.肥胖), having high cholesterol(膽固醇) or blood pressure. But there’s a new study that suggests there might be an unusual connection(n.關係) between strokes and fast food. These findings showed that the risk of a stroke for people living in a neighborhood went up by 1% for every fast food restaurant in the area. The lead(a.重要的) researcher pointed out(指出) that the study does not indicate(v.指出) whether fast food increases the risk because of its content(n.內涵), or whether fast food restaurants are just a sign of unhealthy neighborhoods(n.區域). The National Restaurant Association, though(=however), says the report is “seriously flawed(a.錯誤的)," in part, because it doesn’t offer any information on(=about有關於) the eating and exercise(n.運動) habits of the people who took part.
