This study compared dietary risk factors among Southern-born and other Blacks in Central Harlem.
A survey of residents of Central Harlem was used to compute a "healthy diet" score for 621 subjects.
Southern-born respondents had the highest-risk diets. Although their numbers were small, Caribbean-born respondents, particularly those younger than 45 years, had the lowest-risk diets.
The variation in diets in Central Harlem was considerable, with Southern-born Blacks at highest dietary risk for chronic diseases. These results remain to be tested elsewhere, as does the contribution of other chronic disease risk factors.
本研究比较了哈莱姆中部出生于美国南部的黑人和其他黑人之间的饮食风险因素。
通过对哈莱姆中部居民进行调查,为621名受试者计算“健康饮食”得分。
出生于美国南部的受访者饮食风险最高。虽然加勒比地区出生的受访者人数较少,但尤其是45岁以下的受访者,其饮食风险最低。
哈莱姆中部的饮食差异相当大,出生于美国南部的黑人患慢性病的饮食风险最高。这些结果以及其他慢性病风险因素的作用还有待在其他地方进行验证。
