Recent findings suggest that many human fetuses have to adapt to a limited supply of nutrients and in doing so they permanently change their physiology and metabolism. These 'programmed' changes may be the origins of a number of diseases in later life, including coronary heart disease and the related disorders: stroke, diabetes and hypertension.
最近的研究结果表明，许多人类胎儿不得不适应有限的营养供应，在此过程中，他们的生理和新陈代谢会发生永久性变化。这些“程序化”的变化可能是日后许多疾病的根源，包括冠心病以及相关病症：中风、糖尿病和高血压。
