專家：別吃了,！壽司沒(méi)有你想的那么健康

淡酒微醉

近些年,，人們的健康意識(shí)都有所提高，很多人拋棄了高熱量的漢堡薯?xiàng)l而選擇壽司這樣低熱量的健康食品,。不過(guò)最近有專家站出來(lái)勸大家別吃壽司了,，原因之一是大家都快把海洋里做壽司用的金槍魚(yú)給吃光了，另一個(gè)原因是壽司有毒,。

Healthy, convenient and increasingly popular over the past few years, sushi has become as common a cuisine in the UK as Indian or Chinese.
健康,、方便的壽司在過(guò)去幾年越來(lái)越受歡迎，已經(jīng)和印度菜,、中餐一樣成為英國(guó)人的家常食品,。

It’s a staple lunch-choice for city-workers all over the country and you’re never far from a restaurant or supermarket selling the traditional Japanese delicacy.
壽司現(xiàn)在是英國(guó)大小城市上班族的主要午餐選擇,，附近隨便哪家餐廳或超市都在賣(mài)這種傳統(tǒng)日本美食。

But it turns out sushi may not be as wholesome a choice as we previously thought – leading biologists have warned that it is in fact harming both the environment and our health.
不過(guò)后來(lái)人們發(fā)現(xiàn)壽司并不像大家之前想的那么健康有益，權(quán)威生物學(xué)家警告說(shuō),，事實(shí)上壽司對(duì)環(huán)境和人體健康都有害。

The UK sushi market is worth £69m a year, but because we’re eating so much of it, tuna supplies in the oceans are dwindling.
英國(guó)每年壽司的市場(chǎng)總值達(dá)6900萬(wàn)英鎊,，但因?yàn)橄�費(fèi)的壽司量太大,，海洋里的金槍魚(yú)供應(yīng)量正在不斷縮減。

According to Professor Daniel Pauly and Dr Dirk Zeller, the leaders of the Sea Around Us project at the University of British Columbia, bluefin and yellowfin tuna populations have reached “crisis” levels.
丹尼爾•保利教授和德克•澤勒博士是英屬哥倫比亞大學(xué)“我們身邊的海洋”項(xiàng)目的領(lǐng)頭人,，他們指出藍(lán)鰭金槍魚(yú)和黃鰭金槍魚(yú)都已陷入短缺危機(jī),。

Bluefin tuna tends to be served in high-end, luxury sushi restaurants, whereas yellowfin is more common in high-street sushi bars and supermarkets.
藍(lán)鰭金槍魚(yú)通常在高檔豪華的壽司餐廳里供應(yīng)，而黃鰭金槍魚(yú)則在商業(yè)街的壽司小店和超市里更為常見(jiàn),。

Increasing global demand means sushi populations are being overfished. Most of the UK’s sushi comes from the Indian Ocean, but according to Professor Pauly we now only have 2-3 percent of what we had 200 years ago.
全球?qū)�壽司的需求量增大意味著用�?lái)做壽司的魚(yú)類(lèi)將被過(guò)度捕撈,。英國(guó)多數(shù)做壽司的魚(yú)來(lái)自印度洋，但是據(jù)保利教授介紹,，我們現(xiàn)在能在印度洋捕撈的壽司魚(yú)類(lèi)（金槍魚(yú)）數(shù)量只有200年前的2%到3%,。

“We are in permanent crisis if you look at it in historic terms,” he warned.
他警告說(shuō)：“從歷史的角度來(lái)看，我們正處于永久性的危機(jī)當(dāng)中,�,！�

Professor Pauly and Dr Zeller believe it is our love of healthy tuna that’s causing the problems in our oceans.
保利教授和澤勒博士認(rèn)為，我們的海洋出現(xiàn)這些問(wèn)題，正是因?yàn)槲覀兲珢?ài)吃健康的金槍魚(yú)的緣故,。

The fish is popular not just for its taste but for its health benefits – it is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which aid heart health.
金槍魚(yú)受歡迎不僅是因?yàn)樗�的美��,，還因?yàn)樗�給人體健康帶來(lái)的益處——金槍魚(yú)富含有益心臟健康的歐米珈-3脂肪酸。

But whilst sushi has a reputation for being low in calories and high in nutrients, we may have overestimated its health value.
不過(guò)盡管壽司以低熱量高營(yíng)養(yǎng)著稱,，我們可能高估了它的健康價(jià)值,。

In advance of a lecture at the Zoological Society of London lately, Professor Pauly revealed he believes most high-street restaurants serve sushi that contains plastic microbeads, the controversial tiny particles often found in face-scrubs and beauty products.
日前在倫敦動(dòng)物學(xué)學(xué)會(huì)講課前，保利教授透露說(shuō),，他認(rèn)為多數(shù)商業(yè)街餐廳賣(mài)的壽司里含有塑料微珠,，這種有爭(zhēng)議性的小顆粒物常見(jiàn)于磨砂洗面奶和美容產(chǎn)品中。

“Microbeads are poison pills which soak up all the pollutants and they are consumed by little fish which are then eaten by tuna,” Professor Pauly explained.
保利教授解釋說(shuō)：“這種小微珠就是**丸,，它吸收了所有的污染物,，先被小魚(yú)吃掉，然后小魚(yú)再被金槍魚(yú)吃掉,�,！�

What’s more, according to Dr Zeller, sushi often contains high levels of mercury and polychlorinated biphenyls, which are chlorine compounds found in waterways that have been linked to causing cancer.
澤勒博士表示，除此以外,，壽司還含有大量的汞（水銀）和多氯聯(lián)苯,，這些存在于水路的氯化合物可致癌。

So what should we eat instead? Dr Zeller and Professor Pauly are urging the public to step away from sushi and eat more fish like anchovies and sardines – less glamorous, but potentially better for your health and the environment.
不吃壽司,，那我們應(yīng)該吃什么呢,？澤勒博士和保利教授敦促公眾少吃壽司，多吃鳳尾魚(yú)和沙丁魚(yú)這樣的魚(yú)類(lèi),，雖然沒(méi)有金槍魚(yú)那么有誘惑力,，但是對(duì)健康和環(huán)境都更有益。
