6 Things That Happen to Your Body If You Don’t Eat Meat(下)
如果某天你不吃肉了,你的身体会发生哪些变化
1.Nutritional deficiencies may occur.
可能导致营养不良。
If you stop eating meat,iron,vitamin D,and B12 deficiencies can evolve.But scientists claim that if your diet contains a sufficient amount of legumes(beans,lentils),nuts,fruit,dark green vegetables,whole-grain products,and cereals,the balance will be restored.
如果不再吃肉了,体内铁、维生素D和B12的含量就会发生变化。但是科学家认为,如果饮食中含有足够多的豆类、坚果、水果、深绿色蔬菜、全麦食品和谷物,那么就能够恢复平衡。
2.You may lose your sense of taste.
可能失去味觉。
Zinc is an essential element responsible for taste sensations.There is a high amount of zinc in oysters and red meat,but vegetarians have to find another useful source of this element.On average,vegetarians need as much as 50%more zinc with their food per day.
锌是味觉感受的基本元素。牡蛎和红肉中有大量的锌,但素食者必须通过别的方式获取锌。平均来说,素食者每天需要的食物含锌量高达50%。
