柯林顿吃中式素食,成功甩肉10kg http://km2000.us/mywritings/obamabrazilvegan2.html

美国前总统柯林顿告别肉类和奶制品,向中国人的饮食习惯取经,每餐几乎只吃蔬果和豆类,短短2个月内甩肉10公斤,CNN主持人逼问他减肥的秘诀小柯透露,他其实是,看了美国营养学家坎贝尔撰写的畅销书《救命饮食》现在改吃中式素食,才成功甩肉,早上不喝牛奶,改喝杏仁茶,多吃豆类,不吃肉,不过在美国,要吃到这样的健康食品,有时候真的很困难,因为满街都是垃圾食物。克林顿怎么瘦了?

克林顿采用了“植物性饮食”,靠“豆类、荚果、蔬菜和水果”为食,每天早上饮用一些蛋白质补充剂,但“不吃乳制品”,此外,只食用少许鱼肉。

据说,克林顿素来贪吃,尤喜欢汉堡和薄饼等快餐。克林顿曾承认自己是“天吃星”,不太注意饮食。作为美国历届总统中最聪明的一位,他的饮食习惯却非常糟糕,根本谈不上健康。他一向酷爱高热量食物,对快餐有狂热的欲望。

1992年,时任总统的克林顿曾与记者一起到麦当劳,他点了汉堡、薯条、牛排——必须要超厚的。当年的报道曾描述道,克林顿“吃东西的速度很惊人,两口就吃掉一个苹果”。2004年,克林顿终于“出事”!他因突发胸痛被送往医院,后来接受了心脏搭桥手术。克林顿曾在手术前说:“一部分原因是遗传,或许还因为我在那些年里太不在乎吃什么。”

关于这个手术,插播一条花絮。去年12月17日,CNN名嘴拉里·金(Larry King)在其职业生涯最后一场《拉里·金现场》中,对克林顿进行采访时称他们同属“拉链俱乐部”。要知道,拉里·金有过数次婚姻,克林顿当年的韵事大家也很清楚。在小小尴尬后,拉里·金巧妙圆话说:“我说的拉链是心脏搭桥手术的劈开胸骨。”

2010年2月11日,克林顿的心脏再次闹“罢工”。这一次,他因胸痛被送往哥伦比亚长老会医院,于当日进行心脏介入手术。据公开报道看,医生在克林顿冠状动脉置入两个支架,以达到通畅血管的目的,治疗心脏缺血导致的心肌梗死。如果说,2004年的心脏搭桥手术是架设高架桥,绕过心肌缺血、梗死区,那么这次的支架置入则相当于拓宽修补原有路面。这两种方法尽管有效,但只是对症治疗,而非对因治疗。换句话说,若克林顿不能有效地控制血脂、胆固醇,不能最大限度地减少血管内脂肪堆积,他的心脏将有再度罢工的可能性。

除外服用降脂药等,有没有更恰当、自然的方式控制它们呢?答案就是饮食。2010年夏天,当克林顿以苗条身段送爱女步入婚礼殿堂时,人们惊呆了。在短短几个月间,以往那个身躯略显肥硕的克林顿去了哪里?他到底是怎么瘦下来的?

去年9月21日,克林顿在接受CNN主持人沃尔夫·布利策(Wolf Blitzer 视频 ) 访谈时,曾专门谈到他减肥背后的秘密。按照电视画面内容,克林顿采用了“植物性饮食”,靠“豆类、荚果、蔬菜和水果”为食,每天早上饮用一些蛋白质补充剂,但“不吃乳制品”,此外,只食用少许鱼肉。在严格的素食谱后,克林顿体重减轻约11公斤,回复到高中时水平。

在英文中,表示肥胖的词汇有不少,最常用的是obese和fat。前者多由医生讲出口,客观形容肥胖这件事;后者则是普通人多用,包含明显的感情色彩。若对应到中文,obese是委婉的说法,将肥胖称为体重严重超标,而fat则犹如直言不讳地喊“死胖子”。

去年,英国卫生大臣安妮·米尔顿建议说,人们应该用fat替代obese,来指称肥胖人群。理由是,fat虽具有攻击性,也更伤人感情,却能让被称呼者更有动力去主动减肥,让他们意识到肥胖的害处。尽管我们不知道克林顿的女儿是用什么词汇来形容父亲的肥胖,但克林顿能坚持素食并减肥,倒的确颇值玩味。

此外,克林顿还提到了四位研究者的名字,分别是美国克里夫兰医学中心外科医生考德威尔·埃塞尔斯廷(Caldwell B. Esselstyn)博士、加州大学临床系教授迪安·欧尼斯(Dean Ornish)博士、《中国健康调查报告》(The China Study)一书作者坎贝尔父子,即柯林·坎贝尔(Colin Campbell)与托马斯·坎贝尔(Thmoas Campbell)。正是这些人数十年的研究结果,成为克林顿坚持素食的基础。

We are talking about the health, meat and diary food just have too much poisons nowadays. The 21th century meat and diary are not the same things as 10 years ago, too much growing hormones and antibiotics. Don't just watch the TVs and newspapers, they are highly sponsored by these food industries. Internet is more unbiased nowadays.

In fact, when the time comes, sooner or later, for oneself, you would not really care about your healthy and food you eat, like Bill Clinton.

One thing for sure is Cliton is not a stupid retard. Top reasons for us to choose the food are: I feel good. I feel energetic. I feel light. Our feeling after meal is the most accurate feedback, esp. when comparing with the previous eating habit of heavy meat and dairy product, esp. when you are already sick and need good energy to recover. The 21th century meat and diary are not the same things as 10 years ago, too much growing hormones and antibiotics.

It is not about nutrition. It is about the "poisons" in the food and how you feel after you eating them. Top reasons to continue your eating style are: I feel good. I feel energetic. I feel light.

在当代,素食的名人大概分为两类:公开的和不公开的。前者,多位海外,台湾,香港,因为环境比较自由,也没人会说什么,像克林顿,奥巴马,大S等。后者,有很多,在他们的名人采访录里,会流露出来,像冯小刚,郭德纲,李连杰,等。名人,包括领袖,演艺圈,等等,他们的视野比我们常人要宽,见到的,听到的,也要多得多。他们知道吃什么好,吃什么有害。只是基于舆论的非议,不一定公开而已。如选择公开,那是他们要传达一种素食的信号。还有,素食不是素食主义,你可以和大家在同一桌吃饭,但是你可以选择素菜,至于在你家里,你选择素食就是自由了,至于讲与不讲,都也是他们的自由了。
