Weight Loss Discovery Making National Headlines
减肥新发现
导读： 报道说，近年欧美肥胖人口的激增，不仅招致医疗费用负担增加，还增大了交通工具的燃料费支出，并使得二氧化碳排放增多。肥胖问题恐怕已不只是个人健康问题，而正在成为社会问题。
在欧美，肥胖人口越来越多。据世界卫生组织称，肥胖指数BMI(体重除以身高的平方)超过30的肥胖人口，从1995年的2亿增加到了2000 年的3亿多。从肥胖者在人口中所占比例(成人)看，美国为30.5%，英国为22.1%，澳大利亚为16.4%。相比于日本(3.1%)、中国 (2.9%)等亚洲国家，欧美肥胖人群明显庞大得多。
苦于肥胖人口增多的美国佛罗里达州的医院，为运送肥胖病人，由6名男性组成了特别搬运组。据医院方面说，体重超过150公斤的住院病人，在20年前也许每年遇见一个，但现在几乎每天都会碰到。
肥胖还使得行政负担增大。美国有关肥胖的医疗费用支出每年约为750亿美元，其中400亿美元来自税收。
上世纪90年代，美国人的平均体重上升了4.5公斤。有数据显示，这增加了客机的燃料消耗量，使每年多排放380万吨二氧化碳。
Did you know you can lose weight without dieting? That’s what one new weight loss product wants you to believe, after claiming you can lose 30 pounds in six months, without changing what you eat.
你知道如何不用节食也能减肥吗?一种新的减肥产品据说可以让你不用改变现在的饮食结构就可以让你在6月内减重30磅。
It’s called the Sensa Weight Loss System, and it’s one of the most talked-about diet products on the market today –featured in The New York Times, Time Magazine, and Dateline NBC. Some are calling the Sensa diet “revolutionary” because of its radically new approach to weight loss.
这种新的减肥产品叫做香料减肥体系， 它现在是《纽约时报》，《时代周刊》，全美广播网上关注度最高的一种减肥产品。由于这种减肥产品倡导的是一种全新的减肥理念，有人就将这种香料减肥称为减肥史上的革命。
Sensa boldly claims to help users lose significant weight, without changing their existing diet or exercise routine. All dieters have to do is sprinkle scented "Tastants" on their food, and watch the weight fall off.
这种香料减肥体系声称可以不用改变用户的现有饮食结构或运动习惯就可以帮助他们减掉相当的体重。所有节食者都必须要做的就是在他们的食物上撒上感觉材料促味剂，然后见证自己的体重逐渐下降。
We were skeptical to say the least.
我们对此持怀疑态度。
The Sensa Weight Loss System goes against everything we’ve been taught about losing weight, so we dug a little deeper to find out the truth about Sensa. Is it just another weight loss scam or does Sensa actually work?
这种香料减肥体系与我们所熟知的减肥方式相悖，所以我们要深入探究这种减肥方法的真相。它究竟是另外一个减肥骗局还是真的会起作用呢?

Sensa Reviews in the Media 媒体对促味剂减肥法的评论
Hollywood celebrities weren’t the only ones catching on to this non-diet craze.
好莱坞明星并不是唯一痴迷于这种非节食减肥法的人群。
Harper’s Bazaar reviewed Sensa in a two-page article called “Easiest Diet Ever?” The review said Sensa sets “no restrictions on what you may put on your plate--or how much--Sensa practically pleads, 'Eat. Have some more! You want butter with that?'"
《时尚芭莎》以2页的文字论述了香料减肥法，称它为“史上最简单减肥法”。文章说香料减肥法不会限制你餐盘中的食物品种和数量。香料减肥法的口号是：吃吧，多吃点!还要加点黄油吗?
When Sensa was featured on Dateline NBC, they interviewed a group of study participants who had been asked to sprinkle Sensa on all their normal foods. Shockingly enough, every single person they interviewed had lost weight. None of them ever reported feeling hungry or deprived, because they were still able to eat their favorite foods--they just ate less of them.
当香料减肥法登上NBC头条时，他们对一组研究对象进行了采访，这些研究对象被要求将感觉材料促味剂洒在他们的普通食物上。让人震惊的是，每个参加采访的人体重都减轻了。他们中没有人说感到饥饿或者吃不饱的，因为他们仍然可以食用他们最爱的食物，只是他们吃的比较少了。

How to Try Sensa Free
如何免费试用香料
The company behind Sensa thought people might be cynical about trying their product, especially when so many diet products fail. But, that’s what we found so interesting about Sensa--it’s not really a diet at all. And, with all of this media attention, we figured it was worth recommending.
香料公司认为人们可能会对他们的产品持怀疑态度，特别是，如此多的减肥产品都以无效告终。但是，这也正是促味剂深受关注的原因所在，它不是节食。再者，有如此多的媒体关注，香料减肥法真的值得推荐。
You can try Sensa free for 30 days with no obligation to buy.
你可以免费试用香料30天而无需购买。
