研究顯示 精油會(huì)造成男性乳房發(fā)育癥
A suspected link between abnormal breast growth in young boys and the use of lavender and tea tree oils has been given new weight, after a study found eight chemicals contained in the oils interfere with hormones.
一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，精油中含有8種會(huì)干擾荷爾蒙的化學(xué)物質(zhì)，這讓年輕男孩乳房發(fā)育異常與使用薰衣草精油和茶樹(shù)精油有關(guān)的疑慮有所加重。
Gynaecomastia is rare, and there is often no obvious cause. But there have been a number of cases linked to use of these essential oils.
男性乳房發(fā)育癥很少見(jiàn)，常常沒(méi)有明顯的原因。但是現(xiàn)在有很多案例都發(fā)現(xiàn)與使用這些精油有關(guān)。
The American study found that key chemicals in the oils boost oestrogen and inhibit testosterone.
這項(xiàng)美國(guó)的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，這些精油中的關(guān)鍵化學(xué)物質(zhì)能促進(jìn)雌激素和抑制睪酮。
Not everyone will have the same reaction to an essential oil.
不是每個(gè)人都會(huì)對(duì)精油有同樣的反應(yīng)。
The plant-derived oils are found in a number of products such as soaps, lotions, shampoos and hair-styling products. They're also popular as alternative cleaning products and medical treatments.
植物衍生的精油存在于許多產(chǎn)品中，如肥皂、洗液、洗發(fā)水和美發(fā)產(chǎn)品。它們也經(jīng)常被用來(lái)替代清潔產(chǎn)品和醫(yī)療護(hù)理。
Lead researcher J. Tyler Ramsey from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), in North Carolina, suggested caution when using the oils.
來(lái)自北卡羅萊納州國(guó)立環(huán)境健康科學(xué)研究所的首席研究員J·泰勒·拉姆塞建議使用這些精油時(shí)要小心謹(jǐn)慎。
"Our society deems essential oils as safe. However, they possess a diverse amount of chemicals and should be used with caution because some of these chemicals are potential endocrine disruptors."
“我們的社會(huì)認(rèn)為精油是安全的，這些精油中的確含有多種化學(xué)物質(zhì)，應(yīng)謹(jǐn)慎使用，因?yàn)檫@些化學(xué)物質(zhì)中有一些是潛在的內(nèi)分泌干擾物。”
A growing number of reported cases of male gynaecomastia have coincided with topical exposure to the oils. After they stopped using the products, the symptoms subsided.
有越來(lái)越多的男性乳房發(fā)育癥病例被報(bào)道有精油的身體局部接觸史。在他們停止使用這些產(chǎn)品后，相關(guān)癥狀就消退了。
"Lavender oil and tea tree oil pose potential environmental health concerns and should be investigated further," said Mr Ramsey.
