Does eating carrots really help you see in the dark? 吃胡萝卜真的可以增强夜视能力? Carrots help you to see in the dark, oranges are the best source of vitamin C and avoiding fruit in the evening are food ‘facts’ we get completely wrong, according to experts. A study of 2,000 adults has revealed many are mistakenly believing commonly-held beliefs when it comes to the food and drinks they consume. 专家表示，胡萝卜可以增强夜视能力、橙子是维C的最佳来源、晚上应避免吃水果，这些关于食物的“真相”都是假的。一项围绕2000名成年人的研究显示：在食品和饮料问题上，很多人都错误地相信广为接受的“常识”。 But now, nutritionists have shed some light on the truth. 但现在，营养学家逐渐揭开真相。 While more than a fifth of adults think juicing your fruit is as nutritious as eating it whole, registered public health nutritionist Dr Emma Derbyshire, said vital fibres and nutrients are removed in the juicing process. 虽然五分之一以上的成年人认为将水果榨汁与直接吃的营养是一样的，但持证公共卫生营养师艾玛·德比夏尔（Emma Derbyshire）博士表示，榨汁过程中，水果所含的重要纤维和营养成分丢失了。 And although nearly half believe eating too much fruit rots your teeth, Dr Derbyshire confirmed most sugar found in fruits will not do this. She said: “We are in the information era yet it seems that ‘over’ information could be confusing the lay public. We must remember to utilise information that is evidence-based rather than trusting ‘popular’ followers.” |
