在食物標準局服務的著名科學家安德魯衛區表示,
在一月份通常很盛行的排毒療法,是浪費時間與金錢的。
Adopting a detox diet-often popular in January -
is a waste of time and money,
a leading scientist has said, Dr Andrew Wadge,
of the Food Standards Agency (FSA),
said regimes purporting to cleanse the body
were "nonsense".
他提及這食物療法標榜可以淨化體內是種無稽之談
The detox market - which can include diets,
tablets and drinks said to flush out toxins -
這排毒療法的市場包含了宣稱可以排出體內毒素的
排毒餐、排毒藥錠和飲品,推估有高達千萬英鎊的商機
is thought to be worth tens of millions
of pounds.
In his blog, Dr Wadge said water and
exercise were enough to help the body
rid itself of harmful chemicals.
He wrote: "There's a lot of nonsense
talked about 'detoxing'
and most people seem to forget that
we are born with a built-in detox mechanism."
"It's called the liver.
So my advice would be to ditch the detox diets
and supplements and buy yourself
something nice with the money you've saved."
Dr. Wadge advised:"First, drink a glass or two
of water (tap is fine, cheaper and
more sustainable than bottled);
second, get a little exercise - maybe a walk
in the park; and third, enjoy some nice
home-cooked food."
