Expectant mothers can drink small amounts of alcohol without harming their baby, claim experts. 通常我们认为，饮酒是怀孕期间的大忌之一，不过现在则有专家表示，其实准妈妈们可以适当的喝少量的酒，这并不会影响到负重的胎儿健康。 Enjoying one or two glasses of wine a week - about two units - does not raise the risk of premature birth or impair the foetus's growth. 每周享用两杯小酒，让人量不宜过多，其实并不会引发早产情况的发生，也不会对胎儿影响造成不良影响。 According to research - which looked at 36 studies from around the world on alcohol intake and pregnancy - it is safe to drink the equivalent of half a unit a day. 该研究参考了来自全球的36份关于酒精与怀孕之间的相关报告后发现，每天饮用小半杯的酒是安全无害的。 The finding is likely to add to the confusion surrounding alcohol and pregnancy. 这项研究的结果可能会使得人们对于饮酒对于怀孕产生的利弊出现疑惑。 Department of Health guidelines advise expectant mothers to abstain completely. 而英国卫生署也提醒准妈妈们最好滴酒不沾。 But researchers at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health in Toronto found that consuming 10g of alcohol a day – just over half a unit – would not harm the unborn baby’s development or increase the chance of premature birth. |
