据美国《医学日报》报道,美国新泽西州立罗格斯大学与俄亥俄州立大学合作的一项新研究表明:女性每天多吃点西红柿,有助保护乳腺健康。研究团队召集了70名绝经后女性参加了为期10周的试验,她们在此期间坚持食用富含番茄的饮食,对应量为每天至少摄入25毫克的番茄红素。在试验结束时,研究者对参与者体内脂联素(这种能够对葡萄糖起到调节作用的激素会影响到人们患乳腺癌的风险)含量的变化进行了评价。结果显示:在坚持食用富含番茄红素的饮食10周后,参与者体内的脂联素含量平均增加了9%,从而降低了患乳腺癌的风险。
According to the U.S. Medical Daily, a new study by Rutgers University in New Jersey State and Ohio State University shows that women eat more tomatoes every day to help protect their breasts. The research team called 70 post-menopausal women to participate in a 10-week trial, during which time they insisted on eating a tomato-rich diet with at least 25 mg of lycopene per day. At the end of the trial, the researchers evaluated the changes in the levels of adiponectin, a hormone that modulates glucose in people, that affects the risk of breast cancer in humans. The results showed that participants’ body adiponectin levels increased by an average of 9% after 10 weeks of adherence to a diet rich in lycopene, thereby reducing the risk of breast cancer.
