Abstract

The prevalence of diseases such as hypertension, overweight, and obesity, type 2 diabetes and dyslipidaemia has increased in China. Studies have found that many chronic diseases are related to lifestyle and dietary habits. However, China is a vast country with a complex topography and 56 ethnic groups. These factors lead to significant differences in diet and lifestyle habits among different populations in China. This paper compares the dietary structure and the incidence of chronic diseases between Tibet and southeastern China and finds that differences in dietary habits between ethnic groups and their geographical factors can affect the prevalence of specific chronic diseases. Therefore, the prevention and control of chronic diseases in China should not be generalized. It is recommendable to consider particular factors such as different cultures and habits among regions and ethnic groups to provide adequate nutrition education.
