"研究顯示低脂優格和氣喘有關聯"

報告聲稱，吃這種食物的懷孕婦女較有可能會懷有氣喘兒。

研究人員進行一項飲食效果的新研究，他們得到結論說，吃低脂優格的懷孕婦女比較有可能會生出患有氣喘或花粉熱的小孩。研究人員相信，這可能和缺乏脂肪酸有關，脂肪酸可以幫助提升免疫系統。

為了這項研究，研究人員分析懷孕婦女和他們孩子的飲食直到小孩滿七歲。科學家發現，每天吃低脂優格配水果的女性，生出患有氣喘和過敏性鼻炎的小孩機率高出1.6倍。通常牛奶的攝取和降低氣喘機率有關。

研究人員還不確定為何低脂優格會出現這種影響。「這個結果顯示脂肪酸扮演著重要的角色，或是吃這種優格的人有相似的生活方式和飲食模式，但是現階段我們還無法作出任何結論。」協助撰寫這份報告的Ekaterina Maslova說。英國氣喘協會的一名代表補充道，婦女在懷孕期間享有均衡飲食是很重要的。

(Life) Study Shows Link Between Low-Fat Yoghurt and Asthma

Pregnant women who eat the food are more likely to have asthma-suffering children, report claims.

Researchers working on a new study on the effects of diet have concluded that pregnant women who eat low-fat yoghurt are more likely to have a child who suffers with asthma or hay fever. The researchers believe this might have something to do with the absence of fatty acids that actually help boost the immune system.

For the study, the diets of pregnant women and then their children were analyzed until the childrens seventh birthdays. The scientists found that the women who ate daily servings of low-fat yoghurt with fruit were 1.6 times more likely to have kids who suffered with asthma and allergic rhinitis. Unusually, the consumption of milk was associated with lower instances of asthma.

The researchers are not sure why low-fat yogurt would have these impacts. The results suggest that fatty acids play an important role or it could be that people who ate this kind of yoghurt had similar lifestyle and dietary patterns, but we cannot make any conclusions at this stage, said Ekaterina Maslova, who helped write the study. A representative from UK Asthma added that its important that women enjoy a balanced diet during pregnancy.
