The most common nutrients added were vitamins that are already plentiful in the average person’s diet, so their widespread inclusion in these drinks is almost completely unnecessary, said Valerie Tarasuk, the lead author of the study and a nutrition science professor in the faculty of medicine at the University of Toronto.

这项研究的主要作者、多伦多大学营养科学教授瓦莱丽·塔拉苏克(Valerie Tarasuk)说，饮料中最常添加的营养素是人们日常饮食中大量存在的维生素，所以在饮料中普遍添加这些营养素几乎毫无必要。

“It’s very hard to figure out the logic the manufacturers are using to do this fortification,” she said. “There’s no way that the things that are being added are things that anybody needs or stands to benefit from.”

“很难理解生产厂家进行这种营养素强化的逻辑是什么，”她说，“这些添加剂不是所有人都需要的，也不能给所有人带来益处。”

Sugary drinks were just as likely to be concentrated with vitamins as those that were sugar-free. Dr. Tarasuk said that as sugar has become the focus of public health concerns about beverage consumption, “this extreme micronutrient addition has fallen under the radar.”

和无糖饮料一样，含糖饮料中也可能添加了很多维生素。塔拉苏克说，因为人们对饮料引发的公众健康忧虑集中在糖上，所以“这种添加微量营养素的极端行为没有引起人们的注意。”
