2 . Chinese people are eating too much salt. On average, people in China eat about 10.5 grams of salt each day, much higher than the 6 grams recommended(建议) by Chinese Dietary Guidelines (2016).
China now has one of the highest salt intakes (摄入量) in the world. To fix this, China issued the first salt reduction guide for its food industry on April 18, 2018, People’s Daily reported.
If the guide is followed properly, the average salt intake for Chinese people will drop by 20 percent by 2030. The guide calls for food companies to lower the salt content in their products by improving their production technology and adjusting (调整) flavors.
The salt we take in mainly comes from processed food. For example, a 104-gram can of Lay’s classic potato chips contains about 0.66 grams of salt, which accounts for over 10 percent of the recommended daily salt intake.
A small amount of salt makes food taste better and is important for good health, but eating too much increases the risk of high blood pressure, Xinhua reported.
Less salt leads to better health. And there's no need to worry that food will be less tasty in the future. A study by the Monell Chemical Senses Center in the United States found that it's easy for people to reduce their salt intake. Although you may think your food is not salty enough at first, your taste buds (味蕾) will gradually get used to it and you will feel that your food tastes the same as it did before.

5 . Many scientists believe our love of sugar may actually be an addiction(上瘾). When we eat or drink sugary foods, the sugar enters our blood and influences parts of our brain that make us feel good. Then the good feeling goes away, leaving us wanting more. All tasty foods do this, but sugar has a stronger effect.
“It seems like every time I study an illness, I find my way back to sugar,” says scientist Richard Johnson. One-third of adults have high blood pressure, and up to 347 million have diabetes (糖尿病). Why?“Sugar, we believe, is one of the main reasons,” says Johnson.
Our bodies are designed to survive on very little sugar. Early humans often had very little food, so our bodies learned to keep sugar as fat. In this way, we had energy stored for when there was no food. But today, most people have more than enough. So the very thing that once saved us may now be killing us.
It’s clear that we need to eat less sugar. The trouble is, in today’s world, it’s very difficult to avoid Our foods are increasingly filled with it. Some manufacturers(制造商) even use sugar to replace taste in foods that are advertised(广告) as low in fat. This may make the food appear healthier, but much sugar is often added.
But there are those who are fighting back against sugar. Many schools are offering more fruit instead of desserts. Other schools are building facilities for students to do exercise. The battle(战斗) has not yet been lost.

6 . If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today, many teenagers are overweight, and one of the reasons is their bad eating habits. They like eating “junk food”. What is junk food? It is food which contains (包含) a lot of fat, oil, salt and sugar.

10 . This is not a diet（饮食）. It’s a simple way to lose weight. And you don’t even have to give up the food you love or join a gym. You just follow some habits that thin people have. Keep them, and you’ll become thin.
Wake-up
When you wake up in the morning, sit up slowly without using your hands. With legs straight out, bend（弯曲）forward until you feel sore in your back. It will burn about 10 calories（热量单位：卡路里）.
Start with soup
When you have a meal, order a clear soup, and have it before having the main food. In this way, you’ll feel fuller, so you’ll eat less when the main food comes.
An apple (or more) a day
Apples are full of fiber（纤维）and water, so your stomach will want less food. The study shows that people who eat at least three apples a day lose weight.
Stand up and walk around
Every time you use the mobile phone, stand up and walk around. Heavy people sit on average（平均）two and a half hours more each day than thin people.
