    　　What President Trump Eats Every Day — and Why This Nutritionist Has Her
Concerns
        川普的饮食习惯有隐患?
    During an interview with CNN, Donald Trump opened up about his predilection
for fast food. He said, "I’m a very clean person. I like cleanliness, and I
think you’re better off going there than maybe someplace that you have no idea
where the food’s coming from. It’s a certain standard." One nutritionist,
however, recently shared her concerns about the president’s poorly balanced
diet.
    在CNN的一次访谈中，特朗普公开表示了他对快餐的喜爱。他说：“我是一个很爱干净的人，我觉得去快餐店吃饭总比去一个食物来源不明的地方好。这就是我的标准。”然而，最近一位营养学家表达了对特朗普不良饮食习惯的担忧。
    Jo Travers is an esteemed nutritionist. She recently assessed Trump’s
everyday diet in an interview with The Guardian, and it was pretty
eye-opening.
    Jo Travers是一位受尊敬的营养学家。最近在卫报的采访中她对特朗普的每日饮食做出了评价，结果十分令人震惊。
    For starters, Trump isn’t a big breakfast fan and he’s reportedly said, "My
big thing is dinner." If he absolutely must have breakfast, he opts for bacon,
eggs, or cornflakes. Travers strongly advised against the consumption of bacon.
She said, "It’s a processed pork product, which has been linked with cancer, so
his risk of developing the disease will go up." Given that his usual breakfast
is so protein-heavy, Travers recommended a better balance of protein and
carbs.
    首先，特朗普不爱吃早餐，他还表示“晚餐对我来说才是重头戏”。而且如果一定要吃早餐的话，他会选择培根，鸡蛋或玉米片。Travers非常不建议吃培根，她说：“培根是处理后的猪肉制品，可能会致癌，所以川普得癌症的几率就变高了。”考虑到特朗普平时早餐蛋白质含量超标，Travers建议他注意蛋白质和碳水化合物摄入的平衡。
    The president has also spoken about his love of meatloaf. Travers said
meatloaf sandwiches are just fine if prepared with whole-wheat bread. She did,
however, bemoan the lack of vegetables or fruit: "Meatloaf is essentially just
meat. There’s no roughage. And no fibre impacts on gut health. If you don’t feed
your gut bacteria with fruit and vegetables, that can impact the immune system
and lead to infections."
    特朗普总统还说自己很喜欢烘肉卷。Travers说如果烘肉卷三明治是用全麦面包做的那就没什么问题。但是只可惜少了蔬菜和水果。“烘肉卷基本上就只有肉，没有粗粮。膳食纤维的缺乏会影响肠道健康。如果你不给肠道细菌提供水果和蔬菜，它们就会损害你的免疫系统最终导致感染传染病。”
    In addition to its physical effects, Trump’s heavy diet may have mental and
emotional implications, as well, specifically due to the lack of healthy fats
and omega-3s. "His body will substitute with other types of fats, which are less
fluid, making it harder for neuro transmitters to get through," Travers said,
adding, "This is linked to mood disorders."
    除了物理影响，特朗普的不良饮食习惯还会带来心理和精神的影响，这主要归因于缺乏健康的脂肪和欧米茄-3的摄入。“他的身体里将有很多其他类型的流动性不强的脂肪，这就阻碍了神经递质的传导，从而引发情绪异常。”Travers说道。
