經(jīng)常曬美食也是心理疾病的一種表現(xiàn)
Friends who seem to post a photo of every meal they eat on Instagram or Twitter may not just be annoying, they may have a problem。
有些人喜歡把每頓飯都拍成照片發(fā)到社交網(wǎng)站上，這種行為不止很煩，頻繁曬食物照片也可能是種病。
The trend of "foodstagramming" has bothered some restaurants to the point they have prohibited diners from snapping photos of their meals. But Dr. Valerie Taylor, chief of psychiatry at Women's College Hospital at the University of Toronto, argues that obsessively documenting one's meals could be a signal of a larger dieting problem。
給美食拍照日益流行，這種行為有時(shí)很招人反感，甚至有些餐館禁止就餐者拍攝食物。但多倫多大學(xué)女子學(xué)院醫(yī)院的精神病科主任瓦萊麗·泰勒醫(yī)生說(shuō)，過(guò)分地記錄一日三餐這種行為，有可能顯示出這個(gè)人有飲食障礙。
"I see clients for whom food has become problematic, and they struggle to go out and not have food be the key element of all social interaction: what they eat, when they ate, when they are going to eat again," Taylor told The Huffington Post。
泰勒告訴《赫芬頓郵報(bào)》記者：“我曾遇到患有飲食障礙的病人，食物成為他們的社交生活的重心：他們吃什么，多會(huì)兒吃的，準(zhǔn)備什么時(shí)候再去吃……這些人要是沒有食物作動(dòng)力，甚至都不敢出門。
Taylor spoke at the Canadian Obesity Summit in Vancouver last week about eating disorders and food's role in our culture. While Taylor admitted that sharing photos of food on social media is relatively common, she said that in some cases it can come at the exclusion of everything else。
上周泰勒在溫哥華舉行的加拿大肥胖峰會(huì)上發(fā)言，主要內(nèi)容是飲食失調(diào)和食物在文化中的角色。雖然泰勒承認(rèn)在社交網(wǎng)上分享美食照片已經(jīng)很正常，但她也表示，在某些情況下，人們會(huì)將這種行為看得過(guò)分重要。
"The concern becomes when all they do is send pictures of food," Taylor told HuffPost. "We take pictures of things that are important to us, and for some people, the food itself becomes central and the rest -– the venue, the company, et cetera -- is background."
泰勒說(shuō)，“當(dāng)一個(gè)人要干的事只剩下上傳食物照片時(shí)，這就很有問題了。我們拍照是為了保存對(duì)我們重要的事，但有些人把食物當(dāng)做生活的中心，其他的，像是所在環(huán)境、周圍的同伴等等全成了陪襯。
While Taylor argues that producing such images may signal an unhealthy preoccupation with food, others have linked the consumption of food photography to eating issues and weight gain. Television host Mehmet Oz did a segment on his show, "Dr. Oz," in October arguing that "food porn" was making society fatter. Oz was referring to people who viewed glossy photographs, such as those in magazines and on blogs, but Food & Wine's Gail Simmons said food photography is nothing new, since her employer's been doing it for decades。
泰勒認(rèn)為瘋狂曬美食，是對(duì)食物過(guò)分關(guān)注的病態(tài)心理，其他人則認(rèn)為這種行為會(huì)造成肥胖等飲食健康問題。電視節(jié)目主持人穆罕默德·奧茲十月曾在“奧茲醫(yī)生中做過(guò)一次專題欄目，論述“美食照片誘惑正在讓人們變得越來(lái)越胖。奧茲舉例說(shuō)人們會(huì)看到雜志或博客上鮮美誘人的食物照片，但來(lái)自“美食美酒網(wǎng)站的蓋爾·西蒙斯反駁說(shuō)食物照片不是新興產(chǎn)物，她的老板早在幾十年前就這么做了。
However, Taylor isn't just focused on Instagram users. She noted in her speech that food tattoos send a similar warning sign。
然而，泰勒關(guān)注的不僅僅是網(wǎng)上傳照片的人。她在演講中指出，食物紋身也傳達(dá)出相似的預(yù)警信號(hào)。
"I think for some people it highlights how important food has become," Taylor said. "Just like the tattoos of 'I love McDonald's' replacing the 'I love Mom' tattoo, food is taking on a very important role. It has moved beyond simply fuel."
泰勒表示：“我覺得這種紋身會(huì)讓人過(guò)分重視食物。就像是‘我愛麥當(dāng)勞’的紋身代替‘我愛我媽媽’一樣，食物不再是簡(jiǎn)單的能源補(bǔ)給，它在我們心中的地位已變得相當(dāng)重要。
A 2023 study carried out by the University of Southern California found that spending a lot of time looking at appetising food online stimulated the brain and causes people to eat too much。
2023年南加州大學(xué)的一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，如果花太多的時(shí)間上網(wǎng)看那些看起來(lái)很美味的食物照片，會(huì)刺激大腦造成人們吃得太多。
