现在流行疯狂吃肉来减肥?这个说法错得离谱( 二 )

如果你觉得这个听起来有点极端,那么你说对了。而且这种极端还不只是健康方面的。

正如很多评论者所说的,时下这种纯肉食主义的突然复兴是对一些健康饮食法的一种怪异、极简化的篡改。(这里说的健康饮食法包括旧石器时代饮食法和生酮饮食法,它们都让你增加肉类食物然后大幅减少碳水,但都不会让你只吃肉。)

The problem is, if you don't get the right amount of vitamins, nutrients, and fibres from sources other than meat, you could risk developing health complications, including scurvy, which believe it or not, is making a scary comeback in the US right now.

问题的症结在于,如果你不从肉类以外的食物里获得足够的维生素、其他营养元素以及纤维的话,你可能会发展出很多健康问题;这其中就包括坏血病,信不信由你,这个病的发病率在美国发生了可怕的回弹。

It's important to have a balanced diet that consists of different protein sources. Fruits and vegetables provide micronutrients that our body needs for long-term sustainability.
