“完美食欲癥”小測試

急于吃“健康食品”或者“干凈食品”，一旦吃了自認為“不健康”的食品就心情沮喪、壓力巨大，小心!你可能患上了完美食欲癥(orthorexia nervosa)。

過度癡迷于所謂的健康食品，為了吃得健康而嚴格控制飲食和種類直到偏執(zhí)的程度，從而使身體處于危險狀況的癥狀，世界衛(wèi)生組織把這種癥狀定義為健康食品癡迷癥，也稱為完美食欲癥或健康食品強迫癥。數(shù)據(jù)顯示，目前全球大約有28%的人口患上了這新的飲食失調(diào)癥。

The "clean eating movement" has taken the world by storm in recent years.

近些年，“飲食健康運動”風靡全球。

Magazines, fitness blogs and Instagram are filled with people posing with their green smoothies, kale salads and sugar-free desserts.

雜志、健身博客和圖片分享應用Instagram上到處都是人們分享綠色果沙、甘藍沙拉、和無糖甜點的照片。

While healthy lifestyle changes should be applauded, people have become increasingly neurotic about what they put on their plates, some experts say.

而專家提醒稱，盡管我們應該稱贊人們向健康生活方式的轉(zhuǎn)變，但人們對健康食品的執(zhí)著越來越神經(jīng)質(zhì)了。

The desire to eat more healthily can veer into an obsession, with rising numbers of people - mainly women in their 30s - suffering from orthorexia nervosa.

“吃得更健康”，這一愿望可能會發(fā)展成強迫癥。越來越多的人們患上“完美食欲癥”，尤以30多歲的女性居多。

Orthorexics spend vast amounts of their time planning their food, resisting temptation, applauding themselves when they stick to their diet.

“完美食欲癥”患者花大量時間計劃吃什么，抵制誘惑，如果能堅持住飲食計劃就會肯定自己。

In its severe form, orthorexia can lead to weight loss, malnutrition and even death, experts warn.

專家警告稱，如果癥狀嚴重，“完美食欲癥”會導致體重下降、營養(yǎng)不良，甚至死亡。

Sufferers typically cut out entire food groups – often in the mistaken belief they are unhealthy or their bodies are intolerant to them – thereby depriving themselves of essential nutrition and vitamins.

“完美食欲癥”患者經(jīng)常會選擇放棄整類食物---錯誤地認為這類食物不健康，或者自己的身體不耐受，因此身體就會缺乏必須的營養(yǎng)和維生素。

At the same time many over-exercise, leaving themselves weak or even emaciated.

同時很多人還過度鍛煉，把自己搞的虛弱又憔悴。

This can leave them with low energy levels, nutritional deficiencies which can lead to depression and anxiety.

由此引發(fā)的身體低能量、營養(yǎng)不良又會導致抑郁和焦慮。

Often, their obsession with food will stop them socialising with friends, as social event revolve around drinking and eating.

他們對食物的執(zhí)著還會影響社交，因為聚會場合總免不了吃吃喝喝。
