減少吃肉的“忌肉主義者”

如今，人們越來越關注健康飲食。隨著聯合國將加工肉制品列為致癌物，很多人加入了“忌肉主義者”的行列。

Reducetarian refers to a person who purposefully reduces the amount of meat in their diet.
“忌肉主義者”是指故意減少飲食中肉的攝入量的人。

The term "reducetarian" was coined by Brian Kateman of Columbia University.
該詞是由哥倫比亞大學的布萊恩·凱特曼創造。

Over the past few years, soaring numbers of people have opted to become vegans, pescetarians and fruitarians. Now, there is the rise of the reducetarian - someone who cuts back on meat, but doesn't give it up entirely.
在過去幾年里，越來越多的人選擇成為純素食主義者、魚素主義者和果食主義者。如今，減少肉的攝入量，但不會完全不吃肉的“忌肉主義者”的人數也正在增加。

Kateman says the move not only boosts health, but benefits the environment - and is easier to achieve than the more radical options.
凱特曼表示，此舉不僅能使人增強體魄、還有益于環境，而且比那些較為激進的做法更容易做到。

Becoming a reducetarian is appealing because it means people don't have to completely give up meat, and can still eat dairy products like eggs, cheese and milk.
成為“忌肉主義者”頗具吸引力，因為這意味著人們不必完全不吃肉，且可以繼續食用蛋、奶酪和牛奶等乳制品。
