有机蔬菜输给普通菜 昂贵身价遭质疑

The organic 'back to nature' approach to gardening - doing away with artificial chemicals - will not deliver healthier or more tasty produce, it is claimed. A controversial new study from Which? Gardening suggests produce grown using modern, artificial, methods may well be better for you. Healthier: A controversial study says that produce grown using more modern methods may actually be better for you

  有机水果以“最天然、无农药、杀虫剂”的宣传标语成为超市中“最昂贵、最烧钱”的水果,但是戴着“有机标签”的蔬菜水果们是真的有营养么?是真的值这个价钱?对得起他们昂贵的身价?所谓“有机水果”是指不添加任何农药以及人工化学物的水果,理论上比普通的要健康,因为,无公害嘛!但是,最新的研究表明,有机水果其实并不比普通水果高级多少,甚至也不会更健康,就连口感上也差不多。专家称,用现代方法(使用正规农药种植)的水果比那些有机水果更有营养、富含更丰富的维生素。

 The claims follow a two year study growing potatoes, broccoli and tomatoes and will alarm producers and consumers who put their faith in natural food. Organic bodies have rejected the claims, insisting the trial was too small to offer meaningful results. However, they will come as a severe blow to the industry's reputation. The non-organic broccoli or calabrese was found to have significantly higher levels of antioxidants than the organically grown samples.

  经过针对土豆、花椰菜、西兰花还有西红柿为期2年的调查专家发现,有机水果所宣称的高附加值大大折扣。然而,支持有机水果的人却因实验太小型而反对这个实验结论,坚称实验不足以承担那么重的结论。而且,这个实验结果会给有机工业的名誉带来致命的打击。然而,实验中专家发现,“非有机”的西兰花和花茎甘蓝中的抗氧化剂含量比同类有机蔬果的含量要高得多!

  Antioxidants are beneficial chemicals that are said to improve general health and help prevent cancer. The research found the non-organic potatoes contained more Vitamin C than the organic crop. While a panel of expert tasters found that the non-organically grown tomatoes had a stronger tomato flavour and were slightly sweeter than the organic samples. Some 30per cent of the population regularly buy organic produce with sales put at ?1.84 billion a year. At the same time, an increasingly number of families are choosing to grow veg and fruit using organic methods.

  抗氧化剂作为一种能改善健康、帮助防止癌症的物质,也是一种能够消除氧化过程对身体带来的损害的物质,是具有一个多余的自由电子,具有在自由基夺取细胞内分子的电子之前与自由基结合。研究小组发现,“非有机”土豆中富含的维生素C含量要大大超过普通的同类水果。如果撇开维生素C含量来看,研究人员还发现“非有机”的西红柿的口感比有机西红柿好得多,更甜、更有西红柿的味道。从购买有机水果的人群上看,喜欢有机水果的人越来越多,据统计,有30%的人经常购买有机产品,每年花费近2亿英镑。也有越来越多的家庭更喜欢自己用有机的方法种植水果。
