But for me this was one of the most fascinating pieces of medical data about the Tarahumara

在我看来,这是关于塔拉乌马拉人最有趣的医疗数据
that they are the blood cousins to the Pima of Arizona
亚利桑那的皮马人是他们的近亲
And Pima of Arizona have some of the highest rates of diabetes in the world, I'm sure you've heard about it on the news
亚利桑那皮马人的糖尿病患病率是世界最高的,你们在新闻中应该听过
They had a piece in your times about it not too long ago
不久前就有报道提到过
By the time you're in your 30s as a Pima, you have well over 50% chance of developing diabetes
30多岁的皮马人中,超过50%的人都患有糖尿病
And when you go truly down into the canyons, and look for diabetes among the Tarahumara you don't find it
但在铜峡谷中,塔拉乌马拉人却没有糖尿病
And so can we say that this is genetics
这能说是基因原因吗
No, because their cousins in Arizona have some of the highest rates in the world
不能,因为他们的近亲皮马人患病率很高
得糖尿病,与平时的饮食习惯有大关联

So it tells us that this really probably has a lot to do with diet

所以说,原因肯定是在饮食上
So what did they eat
他们吃些什么呢
Very simple, they really are quite vegan in their approach to eating
很简单,他们几乎是素食主义者
They eat the three sisters, las tres hermanas, They eat corn and beans and squash
他们吃这“三姊妹”,玉米,豆类,南瓜
And when we're talking about corn, it's not at all in a processed form
玉米并不是我们说的加工后产品
As a matter fact, their tortillas like the ones that I traded with that woman
他们做的玉米薄饼,和那个妇女交换的那种
They're thick and rich and nutty, and honestly, you eat one of them, you're full
做得很稠密很有分量,老实说,吃一个就饱了
And if you had another one left over, You could use it to scrub the corns off your feet or clean the ring out from your bathtub
如果吃剩下一个,可以用它去脚上的鸡眼或用它清洗浴缸死角
