美国政府:食品公司应为孩子推出健康食品

Food makers should voluntarily replace child-targeted ad campaigns for unhealthy products such as chips, soda and candy with healthier foods, says a proposal released Thursday by several U.S. government agencies.
食品制造商应志愿地把关注孩子的广告活动用更健康的食品代替如薯片，碳酸饮料和糖果这些不健康产品。几个美国政府机构周四发表的一个提议。

American children need to consume less sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, and eat foods that "make a more meaningful contribution to the diet," according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Food and Drug Administration, the Department of Agriculture and the Federal Trade Commission, the Wall Street Journal reported.
美国儿童应少吃含糖，纳，饱和脂肪和反式脂肪的食品，多吃那些“对健康饮食更有益的食品”， 根据农业部和联邦贸易委员会，食品和药品管理局，疾病预防和控制中心提议，《华尔街日报》报道。

"The proposed voluntary principles are designed to encourage stronger and more meaningful self-regulation by the food industry and to support parents' efforts to get their kids to eat healthier foods," the agencies said in a joint new release. "While the goals they would set for food marketers are ambitious and would take time to put into place, the public health stakes could not be higher."
“该项提议的自愿原则是为了鼓励食品工业更加严厉更有意义进行自我调整，并给父母帮助孩子吃更健康食品提供支持。”这些机构在一个新的联合公布的报道中称。“他们为食品经营者设定的目标很有野心，并花时间实行，所以公共卫生的风险就不会再增加了。”

The agencies noted that about one-third of children in the U.S. are overweight or obese, the Wall Street Journal reported.
这些机构指出美国约1/3的儿童超重或肥胖，《华尔街日报》报道。
