Eating more fish may reduce a woman's risk for hearing loss, according to a large new study.
根据最新一项大型研究，多吃鱼或许可以降低女性失聪的风险。
Researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston found that consuming at least two servings of fish and omega-3s (long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids) each week could help prevent or delay hearing loss.
波士顿布里翰妇女医院的研究人员发现，每周食用至少两份鱼和omega-3（omega-3长链多不饱和脂肪酸）可以帮助预防或延缓失聪。
"Acquired hearing loss is a highly prevalent, and often disabling, chronic health condition," the study's corresponding author, Dr. Sharon Curhan, of the hospital's Division of Network Medicine, said in a hospital news release. "Although a decline in hearing is often considered an inevitable aspect of aging, the identification of several potentially modifiable risk factors has provided new insight into possibilities for prevention or delay of acquired hearing loss."
“后天性失聪非常普遍，而且是致残的，慢性的健康问题。”该研究的通讯作者，这座医院网络医学学科的Sharon Curhan医生在医院新闻发布会上表示，“尽管听力的衰退随着年龄的增长是不可避免的，然而，鉴别出几个可修正的潜在因素为预防或延缓后天性失聪提供了新的视角。”
The study, published online Sept. 10 in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, involved more than 65,000 women who were followed from 1991 to 2009. Of these women, more than 11,600 developed hearing loss.
该研究发表在9月10日在线版的《美国临床营养学期刊》上，共对超过65,000名女性从1991年至2009年间进行了追踪。在这些女性中，超过11,600人失聪。
But those women who ate two or more servings of fish weekly had a 20 percent lower risk for hearing loss than those who ate fish only rarely, the study showed. More specifically, eating more omega-3s, which are commonly found in seafood, was linked to a lower risk for hearing loss.
但是那些每周食用两次或更多次鱼的女性失聪的风险比那些很少吃鱼的女性低20%。更具体地说，食用富含omega-3脂肪酸的海产品较多的女性失聪的风险较低。
"Consumption of any type of fish (tuna, dark fish, light fish, or shellfish) tended to be associated with lower risk. These findings suggest that diet may be important in the prevention of acquired hearing loss," noted Curhan.
Curhan指出，“食用任何种类的鱼（金枪鱼，黑鱼，淡味型鱼，贝类）都有助于降低风险。这些发现表明，饮食在预防后天性失聪方面非常重要。”
While the researchers found an association between greater fish consumption and hearing preservation, they didn't prove a direct cause-and-effect relationship.
尽管研究人员发现多吃鱼与保护听力之间有一定的联系，但他们并未证明两者之间直接的因果关系。
