美国波士顿马萨诸塞州总医院的胃肠病学家发现,男性食用过多红肉,罹患憩室炎这种消化道疾病的风险会增高。憩室炎由肠道壁上形成的小凹窝发炎或感染所造成,常见于40岁以上人群。为考察食用红肉、鱼类和家禽肉对引发憩室炎的潜在影响,研究者在6年间以大约4.65万名年龄在40岁 Gastroenterologists at the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, United States, found that men who consumed too much red meat were at increased risk of digestive diseases such as diverticulitis. Diverticulitis is caused by inflammation or infection in small dimples formed on the intestinal wall, commonly found in people over 40 years of age.
