News 1+1丨my country's chronic diseases are changing quietly. Do you know these?
Throughout 2020
The eyes of people almost all over the world
All focused on the new coronary pneumonia
This also sounded the alarm for us
Don't ignore
Other diseases that surround us
Recently, the relevant person in charge of the National Health Commission announced the "Report on Nutrition and Chronic Disease Status of Chinese Residents (2020)" at a press conference of the State Council Information Office. In this report, many data are closely related to our health status. Related.
For example, the good news is that Chinese people have grown taller, and they have definitely returned to the concept of being number one in East Asia.
But on the other hand, more than 50% of our residents are overweight and obese, which means that one person must be overweight or obese.
There are also some very interesting statistics. For example, the number of Chinese people who drink every day has changed from one in four people to one out of five people.
There is also a particularly important data that is good news. The five-year survival rate of cancer has changed from a little over 30% ten years ago to 40% now. This is the continuation of many lives.
The data here is very relevant to many of our chronic diseases. Let's take a look.
What is the current status of chronic diseases in my country?
The prevalence of hypertension among residents aged 18 and over is that 27.5 out of 100 people have hypertension, and the prevalence of diabetes is 11.9 out of 100 people.
The prevalence of hypercholesterolemia is 8.2 out of 100 people, and the prevalence of COPD among 100 people over 40 is 13.6. This is on the rise compared with the results released in 2015. The incidence rate is 293.9 out of 100,000, which is also on the rise.
How to improve my country's ability to prevent and treat chronic diseases?
Three levels of government, society, and individuals are required to work together.
How about the consumption of oil, salt and sugar in my country?
Bai Yansong: The Chinese, the consumption of salt is decreasing, the consumption of oil is increasing, the total consumption of sugar is not large but the consumption of young people is high?
Liang Xiaofeng, Vice President and Secretary-General of the Chinese Preventive Medicine Association: From the usual monitoring situation, the Chinese people use salt very well. As people's physical activity decreases, the natural intake of salt itself is decreasing.
The per capita daily consumption of salt has fallen below 10 grams, which is a very good result.
Regarding the consumption of oil is still increasing, more than 80% of households consume more than 25 grams of cooking oil per person per day.
Especially for take-out, Sichuan cuisine is the one that orders the most food. A major feature of Sichuan cuisine is that it has a lot of oil, so the consumption of both animal oil and vegetable oil is increasing.
About sugar, the situation is more complicated. The total consumption of sugar in Chinese is not large, but teenagers prefer it. You can't see sugar in sugary drinks that consume a lot, but most of them are sweet.
Therefore, there are problems with oil, salt, and sugar, and further work needs to be done in the next step.
Why is the rate of adolescent obesity increasing?
Liang Xiaofeng, Vice President and Secretary-General of the Chinese Preventive Medicine Association: Among the social determinants, eating, moving, walking, and diet are all important risk factors for disease.
Take the well-known chronic diseases, especially cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and other high-burden diseases, the main problem is imbalance in eating and moving.
Eat more and move less, and the energy supply has dropped from 2300 and 2400 kcal to 2000 kcal.
Among them, there is another content change about eating-more oil.
In the last round, the national energy supply ratio has not reached 30%, only a few urban areas have reached 30%, but now it is 34% nationwide, and rural areas exceed 30% for the first time.
This shows that you eat more oil, less food, and less vegetables.
Another harmful factor, such as smoking, drinking, and air pollution, is more serious in some places.
The consumption of vegetables and fruits in my country is low
Liang Xiaofeng, Vice President and Secretary-General of the Chinese Preventive Medicine Association: In developed countries, taxes may be increased on some harmful foods, and some beneficial foods may be reduced in price, and the government may have to subsidize them.
This work is being done in some parts of our country, but it is far from enough. In particular, the consumption of vegetables, fruits, dried fruits, etc., is still significantly low in our country.
Tobacco control!
Reduce risk factors for chronic diseases
For the prevention and treatment of various chronic diseases, in addition to constantly calling for and advocating a healthy life, the prevention of the national system is the most critical.
For chronic diseases, early prevention, early detection and early intervention.
In the future, how to establish a more complete prevention system?
The entire government must take responsibility, such as tobacco control. my country accounts for 44% of the world's tobacco production and consumption, and tobacco production is more than the total of the 29 countries behind.
Liang Xiaofeng, Vice President and Secretary-General of the Chinese Preventive Medicine Association: There are many social factors that cause chronic diseases. Our air quality has improved significantly, which is inseparable from the efforts of industrial environmental protection departments.
Recently, the Ministry of Education has also intensively issued regulations on student sports to make children move.
The entire government must take responsibility for a healthy China so that we can do a good job.
As far as the health sector is concerned, prevention first is the basic work policy. Especially for chronic diseases, the risk factors that directly lead to chronic diseases must be prevented.
Tobacco control is a major task to be done in my country. At present, my country’s tobacco production and consumption account for 44% of the world’s total. The output of tobacco in one country is more than that of the 29 countries combined. There is one smoker in two adult men. This is what we need to improve.
On the positive side, the current second-hand smoke exposure rate has dropped from 72% to 68%, indicating that the measures taken in various places have been effective, but there is still a long way to go.
Regarding food, some express delivery and takeaway companies should be guided and advocated on how to reduce oil, salt, and sugar. The "three reductions and three health" should be implemented in every unit and every family.
What should families do to prevent chronic diseases?
Liang Xiaofeng, Vice President and Secretary-General of the Chinese Preventive Medicine Association: Everyone is a member of the family. The family atmosphere is very important. Some families are fatter overall, and some are stronger. This is not a genetic problem, but is caused by lifestyle. , Parents have a great influence on children.
Dad will take the children out to do sports. Mom must cook lightly, with more vegetables, more meat, and more milk. This is all possible.
Therefore, because most families do not understand and do not understand, the health department should do a lot of publicity to introduce a healthy lifestyle to every family. This is our goal.
Patients with hypertension should pay attention!
Liang Xiaofeng, Vice President and Secretary-General of the Chinese Preventive Medicine Association: Half of the people do not know that they have high blood pressure. Half of the people who know they have high blood pressure may not be treated. Half of the people treated may not be effective yet, and there are the rest. There is no way to persist in treatment.
Because hypertension requires long-term medication, as a basic public health service item, there is hypertension, but there are fewer doctors and more patients, and everyone’s compliance is relatively poor. This is a more prominent problem now, and it is also a cardio-cerebrovascular disease in my country. An important factor in the high mortality rate.
Controlling blood pressure can control the occurrence of many diseases, especially the onset, disability and death of stroke. This is now a top priority.
In the past five years, the material life of Chinese residents has continued to enrich
Male weight gains an average of 7 catties
Women's weight increased by an average of nearly 3.5 pounds

How do you embrace a healthier lifestyle in the future
