Since soft drinks and fast-food restaurants became popular in Mexico, this country has become the second fattest nation in the world. Mexican health officals say it could replace the US as the most obese(肥胖的)country within 10 years if the situation doesn’t change. More than 71% of Mexican women and 66% of Mexican men are overweight, according to the latest national surveys. With diabetes(糖尿。﹏ow Mexico’s leading cause of death, experts and leaders hope to make more efforts to encourage people to stop eating junk food or other fatty-food and to exercise more. But it will be a difficult battle, as industry groups are expected to put up a fight. No one knows better the country’s love for fattening foods than Lidia Garica Garduno, who’s run a fruit stand in central Mexico City for the past 10 years. “People don’t eat right anymore,” said Garcia Garduno. “Instead of coming here and buying a fruit drink, they prefer to walk across the street and buy fried pork chops.”
“In 1989, fewer than 10 percent of Mexican adults were overweight. No one in the country even talked about obesity(肥胖)back then,” said Barry Popkin, a University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill professor who studies global weight gain. Experts were too concerned with hunger and the poor.
“It certainly took them by surprise,” said Popkin, who’s working with the Mexican health ministry to develop ways to deal with obesity throughout the country. “Mexico has probably had the most rapid increase of obesity since 1993.”
Mexican Health Secretary Jose Cordova, who started a new health plan on Feb. 25, says, “We have to put the brakes on this obesity problem.”
