Study links sugar-sweetened beverages to hair loss among young men

一口“快乐水”一撮毛！研究：含糖饮料可能导致头秃

Researchers from Tsinghua University analyzed survey results of 1,028 Chinese men with an average age of 27.8.

清华大学的研究人员对1028名平均年龄为27.8岁的中国男性的调查结果进行了分析。

About 57.6 percent of the participants had MPHL, or male pattern hair loss.

约57.6%的受试者患有MPHL，即男性型脱发。

Among the participants, 44.6 percent said they drank sugar-sweetened drinks more than seven times a week.

44.6%的受试者说他们每周饮用含糖饮料超过7次。

The researchers found that those with a higher consumption level of sugar-sweetened beverages also had a greater risk of male-patterned hair loss.

研究人员发现，那些经常饮用含糖饮料的人患男性脱发的风险更大。

The sugar-sweetened drinks included in the survey were juices, soft drinks, sports and energy drinks, sugary milks, nut milks, sugary teas and tea drinks, and coffee.

调查中包含的含糖饮料包括果汁、无醇饮料、运动和能量饮料、含糖牛奶、坚果牛奶、含糖茶和茶饮料以及咖啡。

The researchers said that higher amounts of sugar can lead to higher serum glucose concentrations, creating an overactive polyol pathway.

研究解释，含糖饮料中较高的糖分会导致较高的血糖浓度，从而产生过度活跃的多元醇通路。

This pathway is known as a place where glucose is converted to fructose.

该通路是葡萄糖转化为果糖的地方。

The study states that hair loss symptoms suggest an "overactive polyol pathway."

该研究指出，脱发的症状表明“多元醇通路过度活跃”。

When the pathway is too active, it may lead to diabetes.

当通路过于活跃时，可能会导致糖尿病。
