大多数马拉维人已经无力承担健康食品的费用。最新的全球数据显示,营养膳食的价格急剧飙升,迫使许多家庭转向越来越不健康的饮食习惯。\n\n联合国粮农组织(FAO)发布的一份严厉报告显示,在马拉维,健康膳食的成本在短短八年内翻了一番多,从2017年的2.38美元飙升至2025年的5.01美元。\n\n按目前的价格计算,一个普通的马拉维人每个月仅为了维持健康饮食就需要花费263,000克瓦查,这对于大多数家庭来说是遥不可及的天文数字。\n\n鉴于75.4%的马拉维人日均生活费不足3美元,71.3%的人日均生活费甚至不到2.15美元,数百万民众被迫陷入一个严酷的每日困境:吃饱还是吃好,鱼与熊掌不可兼得。\n\n粮农组织警告称,尽管健康饮食对儿童发育、公众健康和长期生计至关重要,但不健康的饮食模式如今已在全球根深蒂固,马拉维也不例外。\n\n农业专家表示,这场危机是由一个以玉米为核心的食物系统所引发的,导致水果、蔬菜、豆类、畜牧产品、鱼类和乳制品生产不足且价格昂贵。\n\n马拉维农民联合会主席Maness Nkhata表示,该国重玉米的政策使得其他营养食品缺乏投资。

原文原文 / Original TextMost Malawians are being priced out of healthy food, with new global data revealing a dramatic surge in the cost of nutritious diets -- pushing families towards increasingly unhealthy eating habits.
A hard-hitting report from the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) shows the price of a healthy diet in Malawi has more than doubled in just eight years, soaring from $2.38 in 2017 to $5.01 in 2025.
At today's prices, an average Malawian would need K263,000 a month simply to eat healthily -- a figure wildly out of reach for most households.
With 75.4% of Malawians living on less than $3 a day, and 71.3% surviving on under $2.15, millions are being forced into a stark daily dilemma: eat enough, or eat well -- but not both.

FAO warns that while healthy diets are essential for child development, public health and long-term livelihoods, unhealthy eating patterns are now entrenched across the world -- and Malawi is no exception.
Agricultural experts say the crisis is being fuelled by a food system built around maize, leaving fruits, vegetables, legumes, livestock, fish and dairy products under-produced and unaffordable.
Farmers Union of Malawi president Maness Nkhata says the country's maize-heavy policies have starved other nutritious foods of investment.
