相信許多小伙伴和小譯一樣，喜歡在清晨或者午后來一杯醇美的咖啡緩解困意，但日前歐盟卻發(fā)出了警示，稱攝入過量的咖啡因會(huì)導(dǎo)致多種疾病，驚嘆之余，還是快和小譯來看下到底是怎么回事吧。Drinking more than five espressos worth of caffeine a day may be damaging to health, according to the European Food Safety Authority.
歐盟食品安全局稱，每天喝5杯以上的濃縮咖啡，其中所含咖啡因的量可能會(huì)對(duì)健康造成傷害。
Heart problems, insomnia and panic attacks were all linked to excess caffeine consumption.
心臟病，失眠和驚恐發(fā)作都與咖啡因攝入過量有關(guān)。
The EFSA said many people were consuming more than the safe level as they were unaware of all the different sources of caffeine.
歐盟食品安全局表示許多人因?yàn)椴涣私饪Х纫虻母鞣N來源，導(dǎo)致其攝入量超過了安全標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。
Safe limits for children and pregnant women are much lower.
兒童和孕婦的安全標(biāo)準(zhǔn)更低。
 Caffeine is often a crutch to help us get through the day.
Tea, coffee, energy drinks, soft drinks and chocolate are all common sources of the drug.
茶、咖啡、功能飲料、軟飲料以及巧克力都是咖啡因的常見來源。
The EFSA was tasked with assessing all the evidence to determine safe consumption levels.
按照所有情況進(jìn)行評(píng)估最終確定安全攝入標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是歐盟食品安全局的職責(zé)。Its report says 400mg a day, in healthy adults, has no health consequences.
其報(bào)告顯示，對(duì)于健康的成年人來說，每天攝入量為400毫克對(duì)健康沒有影響。
This is in line with advice in many countries, including the UK, but the EFSA warns many people drink too much.
這一攝入量符合很多國(guó)家（包括英國(guó)）的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，但歐盟食品安全局警告說，還有許多人的攝入量過高。
 Around a third of people in Denmark, 17% in the Netherlands and 14% in Germany consume more than 400mg.
大約三分之一的丹麥人，17%的荷蘭人和14%的德國(guó)人每天攝入的咖啡因超過了400毫克。
An EFSA spokesman said: 'If you have a bar of dark chocolate at 11:00 and espresso with lunch, a tea at 16:00 and vodka-Red Bull in the evening - that's a lot of caffeine over the day.
歐盟食品安全局的一位發(fā)言人說道：“如果你上午11點(diǎn)吃一條黑巧克力，中午喝一杯濃縮咖啡，下午4點(diǎn)喝一杯茶，晚上喝一杯紅牛伏特加，那么這一天里攝入的咖啡因就超出了每日標(biāo)準(zhǔn)?！?br style='box-sizing: border-box;'>Cup of filter coffee - 90mg
