你知道嗎？只用清水沖洗無法去除蔬果上殘留的農(nóng)藥，而長(zhǎng)期攝入農(nóng)藥會(huì)有致癌風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。專家指出，去除蔬果上的農(nóng)藥最有效的方式是削皮，如果無法削皮，則應(yīng)該用鹽水、小蘇打水和稀釋的醋來清洗。

You probably know better than to eat a strawberry straight from of the carton without washing it. Fruits and veggies are often coated in harmful pesticides to ward off pests when they're growing. These chemicals are not exactly safe for human consumption either.
你可能很清楚，買來的草莓不能不洗就從盒子里拿著吃。水果和蔬菜在生長(zhǎng)過程中常常被噴上有害的農(nóng)藥以抵御害蟲。實(shí)際上，人類攝入這些化學(xué)物質(zhì)也并不安全。

And while you probably rinse off your produce in a colander before eating it, new research suggests even a thorough wash with water isn't enough to properly get rid of all the pesticides.
雖然你很可能會(huì)在吃之前放濾網(wǎng)里用流水沖洗一下，但新研究表明，即使是用水徹底清洗也不足以完全去除所有的農(nóng)藥。

In new study published in the American Chemical Society’s journal Nano Letters, experts found that simply washing your fruits and vegetables in the sink "cannot wholly remove pesticides" because they can actually "penetrate the peel layer into the pulp layer."
發(fā)表在美國(guó)化學(xué)學(xué)會(huì)期刊《納米快報(bào)》上的一項(xiàng)新研究中，專家們指出，僅僅在水槽里清洗水果和蔬菜“不能完全去除農(nóng)藥”，因?yàn)檗r(nóng)藥實(shí)際上可以“穿透果皮層進(jìn)入果肉層”。

That doesn't, however, mean you are destined to a life of pesticide-ridden apples and oranges. They advise to avoid eating the peel.
然而，這并不意味著你注定一輩子都要吃含有農(nóng)藥的蘋果和橙子。專家的建議是不要吃果皮。

"The research posits that peeling can effectively eliminate nearly all pesticide residues, contrasted with the frequently recommended practice of washing," study co-author Professor Dongdong Ye said.
研究報(bào)告的合著者葉冬冬教授表示：“與經(jīng)常推薦的清洗做法形成對(duì)比的是，研究提出削皮可以有效地消除幾乎所有的農(nóng)藥殘留?！?/p>

According to food scientist and author of 150 Food Science Questions Answered, Dr. Bryan Quoc Le, the pesticides left behind on the skin of produce are fat-soluble, which basically just means they aren't as easy to get rid of.
《150個(gè)食品科學(xué)問題解答》的作者、食品科學(xué)家黎國(guó)（音譯）博士說，殘留在農(nóng)產(chǎn)品表皮上的農(nóng)藥是脂溶性的，這意味著它們沒那么容易被去除。

"Most commercial [produce] operations already wash or rinse their produce for distribution and sale. However, effective treatments for removing the vast majority of pesticides [include] peeling, rinsing in chemical treatments, and blanching," Dr. Le said. "Other potential methods for reducing pesticide levels are pickling and fermentation, as microorganisms and acids help to decompose pesticides into harmless molecules over time."
黎博士表示：“大多數(shù)農(nóng)產(chǎn)品在分銷時(shí)已經(jīng)清洗過了。然而，有效去除絕大多數(shù)農(nóng)藥的方法包括削皮和用化學(xué)溶液漂洗。其他可能降低農(nóng)藥水平的方法還有腌制和發(fā)酵，因?yàn)殡S著時(shí)間推移，微生物和酸類物質(zhì)有助于將農(nóng)藥分解成無害分子。”

If you're not planning to peel your fruit and vegetables, he suggests soaking the produce in a solution of salt, a solution of baking soda, or a solution of vinegar. "[This] will help to remove many of the pesticides found in produce."
如果你不打算給你的水果和蔬菜削皮，黎博士建議你將農(nóng)產(chǎn)品浸泡在鹽水、小蘇打水或醋溶液中。黎博士指出：“這將有助于去除農(nóng)產(chǎn)品中發(fā)現(xiàn)的許多農(nóng)藥?！?/p>

"The waxy layers of produce hold on to pesticides and are very difficult to remove using water alone," he says. "Other agents are needed to effectively remove the waxy layers. However, peeling remains the most effective way to remove a large concentration of pesticides."
黎博士稱：“農(nóng)產(chǎn)品的蠟質(zhì)層會(huì)附著農(nóng)藥，而且光是用水清洗很難去除，需要其他藥劑來有效去除蠟質(zhì)層。然而，削皮仍然是去除高濃度農(nóng)藥的最有效方法?！?/p>

While you're not going to die over one unwashed blueberry, long-term pesticide consumption can increase your risk of cancer and cause birth defects, fertility issues, neurodegenerative disease, and immune system disease, according to Dr. Le.
黎博士指出，雖然你不會(huì)因?yàn)槌韵乱活w未洗的藍(lán)莓而喪命，但長(zhǎng)期攝入農(nóng)藥會(huì)增加你患癌癥的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，并導(dǎo)致出生缺陷、生育問題、神經(jīng)退行性疾病和免疫系統(tǒng)疾病。
