Got milk? Be very afraid. Or, preferably, a bit skeptical. Some folks are about to try to convince you that milk is toxic. But the real question is, what’s more dangerous to your health; milk, or celebrities and activists embarked on the latest trendy crusade(改革)? This month marks the publicity-pumped debut of the Anti Dairy Coalition, a band of physicians, self-described "Holly-wood personalities" and others who deery what they call "the health and nutritional risks of consuming dairy products."
The coalition, including its spokes-Jeremiah, writer George Plimpton, would have you believe that milk causes heart disease, caner, infections, asthma, allergies and tuberculosis. Robert Cohen, founder of the ADC(and author of Milk: The Deadly Poison), writes: "The Fountain of Youth and cure to illness can be obtained by giving up milk."
Hyperbole aside, the ADC is spotlighting a question hotly debated by everyone from nutritionists to parents. Many patients ask doctors whether they should give up milk, like that supermodel they saw interviewed on TV. And to be sure, the ADC’s overwrought claims do have some scientific basis.
Take heart disease, Foods like butter, cheese, ice cram and milk are packed with saturated fat(饱和脂肪), which blocks arteries(动脉)and can lead to heart attacks. That’s why most nutritionists advise switching to low-fat or skim milk and eating more yogurt and cottage cheese than Haagen-Dazs and Bric. Even skim milk, though, can trigger allergies in some people, including infants, who in any case will get more iron and other key nutrient form breast milk or formula.
So must you flee from milk entirely? Yes, says Cohen, who holds that skim milk is the devil’s brew. It’s full of — are you sitting down? —protein. And here’s where the ADC starts twisting the facts to reach wild conclusions, Allergies are frequently triggered by proteins(true); asthma is an allergic condition(true); it’s been increasing dramatically(true); doctors don’t know the cause(true); therefore, the protein in milk must be the culprit(罪魁祸首)?
A similar leap of illogic assumes that because women in the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway and Sweden consume lots of milk and also suffer high rates of breast cancer, the former must cause the latter, Another clunker is Cohen’s claim that widespread lactose intolerance(乳糖不耐受)— the inability to digest dairy products — means milk is of little use as a source of calcium. In fact, many cases of lactose intolerance are mild and interfere only slightly with calcium uptake. Many people intolerant of milk can easily digest yogurt, and lactase tablets(乳糖分解酵素片)can make dairy products digestible even in severe cases.
If milk isn’t the perfect food, it’s still got some big things going for it. It’s an inexpensive source of calcium, protein, potassium and other vitamins and minerals, And unlike other sources of calcium, such as, say, steamed kale, milk is a food kids will eat. The ADC feels that milk is the root of most human maladies(疾病), but I can point to other single-issue obsessive who insist the villain is meat or wheat or sugar or some other substance that our species has long and happily consumed, I often learn something by examining their claims, But I keep coming back to the mainstream nutritionists, who emphasize a balanced diet and advise moderation in all things.
According to the passage, if you suffer from lactose intolerance______
选项
A、you had better give up milk entirely
B、you should have less milk every day
C、you can take lactase which catalyzes(催化)lactose into glucose(葡萄糖)and galaclose
D、you must see a doctor at once
答案
C
解析
本题为综合分析题。依据文章倒数第二段最后一句“Many people intolerant of milk can easilydigest yogurt,and lactase tablets(乳糖分解酵素片)can make dairy products digestible even in severe cases.”可知,作者认为许多患有乳糖不耐症的人能够轻松吸收酸奶,即便是很严重的人,也可通过此外乳糖分解酵素片,将乳制品转化成可吸收物质。C选项符合原文意思,A选项与作者观点完全相反。B和D选项并未提及。因此,C选项正确。
