Notice anything? The foods that caused people the most mental distress and physical discomfort are also foods that are highly-processed or are high in added fats and sugars. They're also more likely to have the highest levels of glycemic load, which is a measurement of how a food will raise a person's blood sugar level after eating it.

發(fā)現(xiàn)什么了嗎？會讓人們產(chǎn)生最多精神負(fù)擔(dān)和身體不適的食物，同時也是那些深度加工、富含人工添加脂肪和糖類的食物。它們也最有可能產(chǎn)生最高的血糖負(fù)荷，而該指數(shù)可以測定一種食物吃下去之后會在多大程度上提高一個人的血糖水平。

Food addiction isn't an officially recognized addiction; the closest thing to it in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) is binge eating disorder. But Avena, who has been researching food addiction for over 15 years, says that hers is the first clinical study to assess the connection between how people eat certain foods and the properties of that food —whether it be added fat, sugar or its highly-processed manufacture.

食物成癮并不是一種正式認(rèn)可的成癮癥；在《精神障礙診斷及統(tǒng)計手冊》（DSM-5）中與之最接近的是暴食癥。但是，已研究食物成癮逾15年的阿維納說，她的研究是第一份測定人們食用某些食物的方式與食物屬性之間有何關(guān)聯(lián)的臨床研究，這里的食物屬性包括人工添加脂肪、糖類或者深度加工。
