222 维生素
For years, doctors advised their patients that the only thing taking multivitamins does is give them extensive urine. After all, true vitamin deficiencies are practically unheard of in industrialized countries. Now it seems those doctors may have been wrong. The results of a growing number of studies suggest that even a modest vitamin shortfall can be harmful to your health. Although proof of the benefits of multivitamins is still far from certain, the few dollars you spend on them is probably a good investment.
多年来,医生提醒病人说,服用多种维生素唯一能给他们带来的是昂贵的尿。毕竟,在工业国家,真正意义上的维生素缺乏实际上从未听说过,不过现在那些医生可能是错的。大量研究结果显示,即使很微量的维生素短缺也会对你健康带来损害。尽管多种维生素能带来益处的证据还远远不够确定,但花上几美金购买它们可能是一个不错的投资。
Or at least thats the argument put forward in the New England Journal of Medicine. Ideally, say Dr. Walter Willett and Dr. Meir Stampfer of Harvard, all vitamin supplements would be evaluated in scientifically rigorous clinical trials.
But those studies can take a long time and often raise more questions than they answer. At some point, while researchers work on figuring out where the truth lies, it just makes sense to say the potential benefit outweighs the cost.
