Well, if you're an organic enthusiast,  

好吧，如果您是有機愛好者，

you're probably willing to pay more for  carrots that have been grown organically.

您可能願意花更多錢購買有機種植的胡蘿蔔。

But for the rest of us, The scientists  have good news for you: all carrots,  

但對我們其他人來說，科學家們為你們帶來了好消息：所有的胡蘿蔔，

regardless of how they were  grown, are pretty much the same.

無論它們是如何種植的，幾乎都是一樣的。

In a 2016 study published in "Food  Chemistry," researchers used specific  

在 2016 年《食品化學》上發表的一項研究中，研究人員使用特定的

methods and chemicals to take a close look  at carrots grown in three different ways:  

方法和化學物質仔細研究了以三種不同方式種植的胡蘿蔔：

conventionally, organically, and  by individual growers (self-grown).

傳統方式、有機方式和個別種植者（自種）方式。

They paid attention to various elements like  sodium (Na), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), and  

他們關注鈉 (Na)、鉀 (K)、鎂 (Mg) 和

calcium (Ca), and even toxic metals  like arsenic (As) and mercury (Hg),  

鈣 (Ca) 等各種元素，甚至砷 (As) 和汞 (Hg) 等有毒金屬，

to name just a few. They also looked at  nitrates and the dry matter in the carrots.

僅舉幾例。他們也研究了胡蘿蔔中的硝酸鹽和乾物質。

To break down the samples for analysis,  

為了分解樣品進行分析，

they used certain chemicals like  deionized water, HNO3, and H2O2,  

他們使用了某些化學物質，如去離子水、HNO3 和 H2O2，

ensuring that they could closely observe all these  different elements and compounds in the carrots.

確保他們能夠密切觀察胡蘿蔔中的所有這些不同元素和化合物。

The main take-away? Even with these detailed  analyses, it turns out that all carrots,  

主要的收穫是什麼？即使進行了這些詳細的分析，事實證明，所有胡蘿蔔，

no matter how they're grown, are  quite similar in terms of overall  

無論它們是如何種植的，在整體

quality. The small differences they noticed  in certain elements didn't make a significant  

品質上都非常相似。 當他們將所有組件放在一起考慮時，

impact when they considered all of the  components together. The findings also  

他們在某些元素中註意到的微小差異並沒有產生重大影響。 研究結果也

revealed no alarming levels of toxic  metals in any of the growing methods.

顯示，任何種植方法中的有毒金屬含量均未達到過量水平。
