Sorghum is one of the most broadly-cultivated crops, and is used in foods, domestic animal feedstuffs, alcohol production, and biofuels. Recently, many research group demonstrated that sorghum contains diverse components highly associated with the prevention of major human chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis, cancer, and inflammation. However, in order to use sorghum more widely as a food for potential prevention and treatment of human chronic diseases, more studies will be required to elucidate the biological mechanisms. In this review paper, we highlight multiple findings to propose a mechanistic link between sorghum consumption and reduced risks of chronic diseases. This article is protected by copyright.

机制综述：高粱潜在的慢性病预防特性

高粱是种植最广泛的作物之一，用于食品、家畜饲料、酒精生产和生物燃料。最近，许多研究小组证明，高粱含有多种与预防肥胖、糖尿病、动脉粥样硬化、癌症和炎症等人类重大慢性疾病密切相关的成分。然而，为了更广泛地使用高粱作为潜在预防和治疗人类慢性疾病的食物，还需要更多的研究来阐明其生物学机制。在这篇综述论文中，我们强调了多项发现，以提出高粱消费与慢性病风险降低之间的机制联系。本文受版权保护。版权所有。
