「超加工食品」と訳すのでしょうか。。。辞書にはありませんし、パソコンではスペル間違いの赤い線が表示されます。
加工品が体によくないのは皆知っていますが、今回の研究では認知機能にも影響があるということです。
Now, a new study has revealed eating more ultraprocessed foods may contribute to overall cognitive decline, including the areas of the brain involved in executive functioning — the ability to process information and make decisions.
cognitive decline : 認知低下
utraprocessed foodsは以下のように定義されています。
Ultraprocessed foods are defined as “industrial formulations of food substances (oils, fats, sugars, starch, and protein isolates) that contain little or no whole foods and typically include flavorings, colorings, emulsifiers, and other cosmetic additives,” according to the study.
protein isolate : タンパク質分離物
emulsifier : 乳化剤
“People who consumed more than 20% of daily calories from processed foods had a 28% faster decline in global cognition and a 25% faster decline in executive functioning compared to people who ate less than 20%,” said study coauthor Natalia Gonçalves, a researcher in the department of pathology at the University of São Paulo Medical School.
怖っ！メモメモ
一日に2000（キロ）カロリー食べる人の20％は400（キロ）カロリー。比較のため、マックでいうと、普通サイズのチーズバーガーとポテトのSでカロリーは530（キロ）カロリーです。
For a person who eats 2,000 calories a day, 20% would equal 400 or more calories — for comparison, a small order of fries and regular cheeseburger from McDonalds contains a total of 530 calories.
People need to know they should cook more and prepare their own food from scratch.
from scratch : 最初から、ゼロから
だそうです。
