Hints:
"no-aging"?diets,
unsubstantiated
fertilized
fumigated?
Almost daily the public is besieged by claims for "no-aging" diets, new vitamins and other wonder foods. There are numerous unsubstantiated reports that natural vitamins are superior to synthetic ones, that fertilized eggs are nutritionally superior to unfertilized eggs, that untreated grains are better than fumigated grains and the like.
One thing that most organically grown food products seem to have in common is that they cost more than conventionally grown foods. But in many cases consumers are misled if they believe organic foods can maintain health and provide better nutritional quality than conventionally grown foods. So there is real cause for concern if consumers particularly those with limited incomes, distrust the regular food supply and buy only expensive organic foods instead.
公眾幾乎每天都被“抗衰老”食品、新型維生素以及其他具有神奇功效的食品廣告所包圍。天然維生素優(yōu)于人造維生素、受精蛋比未受精蛋的營養(yǎng)價(jià)值更高、未經(jīng)熏蒸消毒處理的谷物比經(jīng)過處理的好等等,諸如此類的毫無根據(jù)的報(bào)道屢見不鮮。
大多數(shù)有機(jī)食品有一個(gè)共同點(diǎn),即它們的價(jià)格普遍高于以常規(guī)方式種植的食物。但在許多情況下,如果消費(fèi)者認(rèn)為有機(jī)食品能保證健康且營養(yǎng)價(jià)值高于以常規(guī)方式生產(chǎn)的食品,他們其實(shí)是被誤導(dǎo)了。如果消費(fèi)者們,尤其是那些收入有限的消費(fèi)者們,懷疑傳統(tǒng)食品而只購買更昂貴的有機(jī)食品,那就值得擔(dān)憂了。
