閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中選出最佳選項。
The high-protein,low-carbohydrate(低碳水化合物) diets many people turn to for weight loss might have potentially harmful long-term effects on the colon,a small study indicates.
In the study,UK researchers found that a protein-heavy,low-carb diet created certain changes in the colon that could contribute to colon cancer risk.The study itself does not show whether high-protein diets really raise the risk of any colon diseases,but the findings raise that possibility.
Diets relatively high in protein and lower in carbs have been shown to help heavy people lose weight.“People should not be discouraged from losing weight,”Dr. Flint said.However,he added,they should make sure that any weight-loss plan includes adequate amounts of fiber and a high protein intake over months to years might have ill effects on the colon.
The findings are based on 17 overweight men who followed three short-term diets:a one-week menu plan to keep their weight;a four-week high-protein diet with reasonable amounts of carbohydrates;and a four-week high-protein diet low in carbs.
On average,the study found when the men were on the high-protein diets,they had reduced levels of substances known as N-nitroso compounds(亞硝基化合物) and other metabolites(代謝物) that have been linked to cancer.And when they were on the high-protein,low-carb diet,they had reduced amounts of fiber-originated compounds thought to be protective against cancer.
Exactly what those changes might mean for a person's health is not clear.But Flint said that the findings suggest that people should be cautious about consuming too much protein and too little fiber over a long period.In general,experts recommend that adults get about 28 grams of fiber per day-though it's not known whether that's enough for someone on a high-protein weight-loss diet.
