Ngokudla okunempilo kangaka, isipinashi kanye neminye imifino yesaladi kubangele inani elimangalisayo lokugula-18 ukuqubuka kobuthi bokudla kule minyaka eyishumi edlule, ukunemba. Eqinisweni, i-Center for Science in the Public Interest ibala imifino enamaqabunga njengesigebengu esingu-1 sokwephula ukudla, ngisho nangaphezulu kwezingozi ezaziwayo njengamaqanda aluhlaza. Inhlama yekhukhi iphephe ngaphezu kwesaladi? Ithi akunjalo!

Kungani Kungcole Kangaka?

Inkinga ayikho kwimifino egcwele amavithamini uqobo, kepha kunamagciwane aqinile, afana no-E. Coli, angahlala ngaphansi nje kweqabunga. Akukhona nje kuphela ukuthi imifino ingaphansi kokungcola okuvela ngaphandle, kepha isengozini enkulu yokwenza amagciwane enhlabathini nasemanzini. (Yikes! Futhi, qiniseka ukugwema lawa maphutha ama-4 okudla akwenza ugule.)

Njengamanje, abalimi bezentengiselwano bahlanza imifino nge-bleach ukususa amagciwane e-icky. Futhi yize lokho kukuhle kakhulu ekuhlanzeni ingaphandle lesitshalo, noma lokho noma isikhukhula sokucwila ekhaya singasusa ubuthi obungaphansi komhlaba. Okubi nakakhulu, ngokusho kwe-NPR, ukuhlanza kabusha imifino yakho ngaphambi kokugeza ekhaya kungenza inkinga ibe yimbi ngokwengeza amabhaktheriya ezandleni zakho, echibini nasezitsheni. Ah, izinzuzo zokudla okuhlanzekile.

Yini Esingayenza Ngayo?

Ngokujabulisayo, ososayensi basanda kwenza inqubo entsha yokuhlanza eqondise amagciwane afihlekile endaweni enezimbotshana zesipinashi, ulethisi, namanye amaqabunga. Ngokwengeza i-titanium dioxide "i-photocatalyst" kusixazululo sokuwasha, abacwaningi base-University of California-Riverside bathi bayakwazi ukubulala amaphesenti ama-99 amabhaktheriya afihle ekujuleni kwamaqabunga. Bathi okungcono kakhulu, lokhu kuyindlela eshibhile futhi elula yabalimi. Ngeshwa, ayikasetshenziswa okwamanje, kepha abacwaningi bathi banethemba lokuyibona isetshenziswa maduze.

Lezi yizindaba ezinhle kubathandi besaladi. Kepha yazi lokhu: Ingcuphe yokuthola ukugula okubangelwa ukudla okuvela esipinashi incane kakhulu ohlelweni olukhulu lwezinto. Kungenzeka ukuthi uthole i-cavity ekudleni ukudla okungenamsoco kunokuba uthole ukudla okunoshevu esaladini lakho elinempilo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-smoothie egcwele imifino noma isitsha semifino kusengenye yezinto ezinhle kakhulu ongazidla ngenxa yempilo yakho. (Empeleni, kungenye ye-The 8 Healthy Foods Okufanele Uyidle Nsuku Zonke.) Ngaphezu kokudla okunomsoco wamavithamini nokugcwalisa i-fiber, imifino ingakusiza futhi ukuthi ukhethe ukudla okungcono nxazonke, ngokusho kocwaningo olusha olushicilelwe ku Ijenali ye-American College of Nutrition. Abaphenyi bathole ukuthi ama-thylakoids, into eyenzeka ngokwemvelo esipinashi, anciphisa indlala futhi abulale izifiso zokudla okungenamsoco ngokukhuthaza ukukhishwa kwamahomoni asuthi. (Ngokuthokozisayo, imiphumela yehlukaniswe ngabesilisa-ngokobulili ikhombisa ukwehla ngokuphelele kwendlala kanye nezifiso; abesifazane babone izifiso ezicindezelwe zamaswidi.) I-bummer: Ngisho noPopeye akakwazanga ukudla isipinashi esanele ukulingana nenani le-thylakoid ekhishwe esetshenzisiwe cwaningo, kepha kusengubufakazi bamandla emifino.

Kodwa ucwaningo olusha luhlala luphuma lubonisa izindlela ezintsha zokuthi ukudla imifino kunenzuzo empilweni yethu: Ngonyaka odlule nje sifunde ukuthi ukudla imifino nsuku zonke kusiza ukusetha kabusha iwashi lomzimba wakho, kuthuthukisa ubuchopho bakho, futhi kunciphisa ngisho nengozi yokufa noma yikuphi imbangela. Ngakho-ke layisha endaweni yokuphuza isaladi futhi nawe ungasho ukuthi "Ngizohlala ngiqinile kuze kube sekugcineni ngoba ngidla isipinashi sami," njengeqhawe lethu lekhathuni eliyintandokazi. (Futhi-ke, uma usebenzisa i-Olive Oil encane futhi, konke kungcono!)
