美漢連續廿日食馬鈴薯減21磅 男子

CWong

美國一名45歲男子為了證明馬鈴薯具有營養價值，並非不健康的食品，過去兩個月他每日狂吃20隻馬鈴薯，結果體重減輕了21磅，身體較以前更健康。

這名男子是華盛頓州馬鈴薯委員會的主席沃伊特（Chris Voigt），他不忿農業部計畫以其他蔬菜取代學校午餐菜單中的馬鈴薯，因此在10月1日開始每天以馬鈴薯作主餐，誓要每天吃20隻，目標是1200隻。

結果他在周二完成目標，總共消耗了400磅馬鈴薯。但原本超過196磅的他，體重不單只減輕了21磅，膽固醇數值更下降了60，血糖也下降，身體比以前更加健康。

他說，馬鈴薯含有鉀、纖維、維他命C和豐富蛋白質，但在美國總令人聯想到垃圾食物，聯邦農業部也考慮把薯仔剔出學校午膳之列，以其他蔬菜取代。

他希望透過今次行動讓公眾知道馬鈴薯也是營養食物。

Potato is bad only cuz they usually deep fry it... so it's the oil that's bad, not the potato itself.

Of course, it's hard for US policy makers to understand the difference between oil and potato LOL, so they wanna ban potatos LOL.

IMO...eating too much of one food is not good for health..
Balanced diet is more important.
Calculate your calories intake + exercise should be the way to go...but of course...it's easier said than done...
