Eating nuts and peanuts reduces the risk of suffering a heart attack or stroke, a new study claims. Researchers found they were linked with a reduced risk of death from heart disease among people on low incomes.

一項(xiàng)新的研究顯示，吃堅(jiān)果和花生可以減少心臟病或者中風(fēng)的發(fā)病幾率。研究者發(fā)現(xiàn)，低收入人群因心臟疾病而死忙的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)較低便是與此有關(guān)。

And they believe their findings suggest peanuts may be a cost-effective measure to improve cardiovascular health because they are so cheap.

并且他們相信，這項(xiàng)發(fā)現(xiàn)暗示了吃花生可能是一種既劃算又有效的改善心血管健康的方式，因?yàn)檫@真的花不了多少錢。

However experts cautioned today that salt-covered nuts would not have the same health benefits. Nuts are rich in nutrients and peanuts, although classified as legumes, have nutrients similar to tree nuts.

而現(xiàn)在專家們提醒說，鹽津堅(jiān)果可能對健康沒有同樣的效果。堅(jiān)果富含營養(yǎng)物質(zhì)，然而花生雖然歸為豆類，但是含有與堅(jiān)果相似的營養(yǎng)物質(zhì)。

The new study, led by Dr Xiao-Ou Shu, of the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Tennessee, analysed various groups of people.

這項(xiàng)新的研究是由美國田納西州范德畢特大學(xué)醫(yī)學(xué)院的舒曉鷗博士領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的，分別研究了不同的人群。

One involved 72,000 low-income black and white men and women living in the US, the other 134,000 men and women living in Shanghai, China.

其中一個(gè)包括了7.2萬在美國居住的低收入白人和黑人，另外13.4萬人是住在中國上海的人。

In both groups, men ate more peanuts than women.

在這兩個(gè)群體中，男性比女性花生吃得多。

In the US group, about half of the nuts consumed were peanuts, and in the Chinese group only peanut consumption was assessed.

在美國群體中，他們吃的堅(jiān)果里大約一半都是花生;至于中國群體，他們只評估了吃花生的攝入量。

The researchers found that across the board, eating nuts reduced the risk of death from heart disease.

研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)從全面來看，吃堅(jiān)果能降低心臟病死亡的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。

This was regardless of gender, race, BMI, smoking, alcohol consumption and conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity.

這跟性別、種族、體質(zhì)、是否抽煙、是否喝酒以及是否有糖尿病、高血壓跟肥胖癥無關(guān)。

In the US, the highest consumption resulted in a risk reduction of 21 percent.

在美國，對于常吃花生或堅(jiān)果的人，死亡風(fēng)險(xiǎn)比極少吃這類食物的人低21%。

In the Chinese group, it was 17 percent.

在中國群體中，吃花生最多的人(的死亡風(fēng)險(xiǎn))比吃花生最少的人低17%。

Dr Shu said: 'We observed no significant associations between nut or peanut consumption and risk of death due to cancer and diabetes。

舒博士說：“我們還沒有發(fā)現(xiàn)吃堅(jiān)果或者花生跟癌癥和糖尿病患者死亡風(fēng)險(xiǎn)之間有什么顯著的關(guān)聯(lián)。”

She added the findings highlight the large public health impact of nut or peanut consumption in lowering deaths from heart disease - especially given their affordability.

她還說：“這些調(diào)查結(jié)果強(qiáng)調(diào)了堅(jiān)果跟花生在降低心臟病死亡率方面對公眾健康的影響，尤其是考慮到他們的經(jīng)濟(jì)承受能力。”

The research was published in JAMA Internal Medicine.

這項(xiàng)研究在《美國醫(yī)學(xué)會(huì)雜志·內(nèi)科學(xué)卷》上發(fā)表。

Dr Mitchell Katz, deputy editor of the journal, added: 'Of course, peanuts are not really nuts - they are legumes since they grow in bushes, unlike tree nuts.

該雜志的副總編米切爾·卡茨補(bǔ)充道：“當(dāng)然，花生不是真正意義上的堅(jiān)果——它們是豆科植物。因?yàn)樗鼈兏鷪?jiān)果不一樣，是生長在矮樹叢中的。”

'But who cares if they help us to live longer at an affordable price?'

“花生物美價(jià)廉，有益健康，雖然花生不屬于堅(jiān)果，但又有誰在意呢?”
