"One of the biggest problems in the world right now is that we produce a lot of calories. We produce a lot of starchy staple crops, whether it's rice or wheat or maize. And while that keeps people full and fed, and most of the world really depends on those starch staple crops to survive, we're not investing as much in the production of fruits and vegetables. Those are the things that contain those essential micronutrients."
“目前世界上最大的问题是不论是水稻、小麦还是玉米，我们都生产了很多的卡路里和含淀粉的作物。在世界大多人依赖那些淀粉含量高的作物生存和填饱肚子的同时，我们并没有在水果和蔬菜区域投入同等多的人力和物力，但是水果和蔬菜却恰恰含有这些基本的微量营养素。”
