妈妈让你吃好早餐的另一个正确理由是：减少患糖尿病的可能。

11月14日是一年一度的世界糖尿病日（World Diabetes Day）。吃好早餐是今年的主题信息。

国际糖尿病联盟（International Diabetes Federation）的数字显示，全球有近4亿人患糖尿病。2013年，糖尿病导致的死亡人数为500万，带来的相关医疗费用为5500亿美元。而这些数字还在增长。

国际糖尿病联盟和世界卫生组织于1991年确立世界糖尿病日，旨在提高人们对这种在全球日益增多的疾病的认识。

研究显示，不吃早餐会导致体重上升，而这是导致较常见的2型糖尿病（Type 2 diabetes）的一个危险因素。体重过重和有肥胖症的人占新患者的80%；但是，合理的饮食结构（包括健康的早餐！）和运动锻炼往往能够使病情得到控制。

1型糖尿病（Type 1 diabetes）——由身体无法正常产生胰岛素所致——通常可以通过胰岛素疗法得到控制.

Another reason your Mom was right about that healthy breakfast…on this day

Here’s another reason your mother was right when she told you to eat a healthy breakfast: you’re less likely to develop diabetes.

That’s the message for this year’s World Diabetes Day, observed every year on November 14.

Nearly 400 million people worldwide have diabetes, according to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). In 2013, the disease caused 5 million deaths and consumed $550 billion in health-related spending. And the numbers are growing.

The IDF and the World Health Organization launched World Diabetes Day in 1991 to raise awareness of the global rise in the disease.

Studies show that skipping breakfast can lead to weight gain, a risk factor for the more common Type 2 diabetes, in which the body becomes resistant to or doesn’t make enough insulin. Overweight and obese people account for 80 percent of new cases, but proper diet (including that healthy breakfast!) and exercise can often control the disease.

Type 1 diabetes, which stems from the body’s inability to produce insulin, can usually be managed with insulin therapy.
