別在運(yùn)動(dòng)后用漱口水,會(huì)有反作用

In ads on TV, it all looks so simple. People use mouthwash, it instantly neutralises all the nasty bacteria hiding in their mouths, and – just like that – their dental hygiene is assured.
在電視廣告里,什么東西看起來(lái)都很簡(jiǎn)單。人們使用漱口水以后,隱藏在口腔中的有害細(xì)菌立刻就被清除了。就這樣,他們的口腔衛(wèi)生得到了保證。
But what's really going on when you rinse a cap-load of antibacterial chemicals around your mouth? What does that to your body, and to other kinds of microorganisms that may actually be beneficial to health?
但你用一瓶蓋的抗菌化學(xué)品沖洗口腔時(shí)究竟會(huì)發(fā)生什么呢?對(duì)你的身體會(huì)有什么影響?對(duì)其他有益健康的微生物又會(huì)有什么影響呢?
As a study showed last year, the downstream effects can be surprising, and far-reaching too, affecting much more than just your dental wellbeing.
去年一項(xiàng)研究表明,下游效應(yīng)令人意外、影響深遠(yuǎn),而且影響的不僅僅是口腔健康。
In an experiment led by scientists from the UK and Spain, researchers found that the simple act of using mouthwash after exercising can reduce one of the benefits of exercise: lowering blood pressure.
英國(guó)和西班牙的科學(xué)家進(jìn)行了一項(xiàng)實(shí)驗(yàn),研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)鍛煉后使用漱口水這一簡(jiǎn)單的行為會(huì)降低運(yùn)動(dòng)帶來(lái)的一種好處:降血壓。
When you exercise, your blood vessels open in response to the production of nitric oxide, which increases the diameter of blood vessels. This process is called vasodilation, and it increases blood flow circulation to active muscles.
鍛煉時(shí),血管會(huì)因一氧化氮的產(chǎn)生而打開(kāi),血管直徑擴(kuò)大。這一過(guò)程被稱為血管舒張,能促進(jìn)活躍肌肉的血液循環(huán)。
For a long time, researchers thought this only happened during exercise, but in more recent years, evidence has shown that circulation stays high (meaning blood pressure is lowered) even after exercise – thanks to how bacteria interact with a compound called nitrate, which forms when nitric oxide degrades.
很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間以來(lái),研究人員以為這只發(fā)生在運(yùn)動(dòng)期間。但近些年,有證據(jù)表明甚至在鍛煉之后血液循環(huán)依然很快(這意味著血壓下降了),這都是因?yàn)榧?xì)菌在和一種叫作硝酸鹽的化合物發(fā)生相互作用。硝酸鹽是在一氧化氮降解時(shí)形成的。
"Research over the last decade has shown that nitrate can be absorbed in the salivary glands and excreted with saliva in the mouth," explains physiology specialist Raul Bescos from Plymouth University.
普利茅斯大學(xué)生理學(xué)專家Raul Bescos解釋說(shuō):“過(guò)去十年的一項(xiàng)研究表明,硝酸鹽能被唾液腺吸收,并在口中隨唾液分泌?!?/div>
"Some species of bacteria in the mouth can use nitrate and convert into nitrite – a very important molecule that can enhance the production of nitric oxide in the body."
“口腔中一些細(xì)菌可以利用硝酸鹽,轉(zhuǎn)換成亞硝酸鹽,這種重要的微粒可以提高人體內(nèi)一氧化氮的產(chǎn)生?!?/div>
Once nitrite is produced and swallowed with saliva, it becomes absorbed into blood circulation and reduces back to nitric oxide, which keeps blood vessels wide and lowers blood pressure.
一旦產(chǎn)生亞硝酸鹽,并隨唾液一起吞咽,就會(huì)進(jìn)入血液循環(huán)中,還原為一氧化氮,這樣可以保持血管寬闊,降低血壓。
But according to this small study, it looks like this biological mechanism can be significantly interrupted if anti-bacterial mouthwash gets added into the post-exercise mix.
但這項(xiàng)小型研究顯示,如果運(yùn)動(dòng)后喝抗菌漱口水,這種生物學(xué)機(jī)制會(huì)大大減少。
