近半个世纪以来,在世界范围内,尤其是美国,减肥手段不断翻新,减肥药物名目繁多。然而除去广告宣传上子虚乌有的受益者外,真正的受益者却很少见,而有案可查的受害者却不在少数。 本世纪三十年代,美国有近万名妇女因服用硝基酚类减肥药而失明,六十年代西方国家很多人因用氨苯恶啉减肥而患上肺性高血压,其中有近百人死去。九十年代统计表明,因控制食欲减肥,美国人患厌食症、低血糖的发病率比20年前提高一倍多,最小的患者只有11岁。因此美国的社会学家、心理学家、医生及演艺界有识之士开始对“减肥”进行反思与谴责。 Nearly half a century, in the world, especially in the United States, the means of weight loss continue to renovate, diet pills variety. However, to remove the false advertising beneficiaries, the real beneficiaries are rare, but there are a few cases of victims can be found. In the thirties of this century, nearly 10,000 women in the United States were blind after taking nitrophenol diet pills. In the 1960s, many people in western countries suffered from pulmonary hypertension because of ammonia triphosphate to lose weight. Among them, nearly 100 people died . Statistics from the nineties show that Americans suffer from anorexia and lose their blood sugar more than twice as much as they did 20 years ago, with the youngest being only 11 years old. Therefore, American sociologists, psychologists, doctors and people in the entertainment industry began to reflect and condemn “losing weight”.
