Under Biden's new federal rules, new vehicles sold in the U.S. will have to average about 38 miles per gallon of gasoline in 2031, up from about 29 mpg this year. The aim is to increase fuel economy by 2% per year for model years 2027 to 2031 for passenger cars and 2% per year for model years 2029 to 2031 for SUVs and light trucks. President Biden hopes that by 2030, half of all new vehicles sold in the U.S. will be electric to combat climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. These standards are expected to save billions of gallons of gasoline, cut carbon emissions, and save vehicle owners over $600 in gasoline costs during the lifetime of their vehicles.

任何吃過西瓜的人可能都聽過同樣的警告：如果你吃下了西瓜籽，它會在你的胃裡生長。九歲時就該讓這個迷思消失，但仍有許多人更喜歡購買無籽西瓜。西瓜籽因其不佳的口感和干擾品嚐西瓜體驗而受到貶斥。然而，有些人甚至對食用它們感到懷疑。它們像櫻桃核一樣有毒嗎？我們應該吐出它們嗎？我們與註冊營養師薩曼莎·卡西蒂和紐約廚藝學院營養主任塞琳·貝奇曼交談，以區分食用西瓜籽的真相和虛構。西瓜籽是否安全可食？是的，西瓜籽完全安全可食。事實上，它們甚至帶有一些營養益處。一盎司西瓜籽含有七至八克蛋白質，相當於一個特大雞蛋、三盎司豆腐、半杯熟大豆或扁豆。一盎司西瓜籽還含有四克碳水化合物，超過 25% 的纖維。其中的一些最佳營養來源來自於維生素和礦物質的濃度，即鎂和鐵。每盎司西瓜籽含有兩毫克鐵。貝奇曼表示，這相當於男性成年人四分之一的飲食需求和女性成年人需求的 10%。卡西蒂補充說，鎂需要進行 300 多種功能，包括調節心律和身體的壓力反應，而鐵則通過在血液中運輸氧氣支持健康的能量水平。貝奇曼指出，西瓜籽對於需要其他鐵源的植物飲食者和懷孕的人來說是一種極好的零食。食用西瓜籽的風險是什麼？與任何其他食物一樣，最好是適量食用西瓜籽。你可以一邊享用水果一口一口地吃西瓜籽而不會有問題。事實上，你甚至可以單獨享用西瓜籽。一些零食品牌出售裝調味和烤製的西瓜籽，可作為脆脆的零食或沙拉配料，類似南瓜子。貝奇曼補充說，你應該檢查營養標籤，以了解預包裝西瓜籽的鈉含量。當你在飲食中增加更多西瓜籽時，最好慢慢開始。我們的大多數飲食不包含足夠的纖維，因此食用像西瓜籽這樣的高纖維食物可能最初會影響你的胃。它們在脂肪含量方面相對較高，每盎司 13 克，如果大量食用可能也會導致一些消化不適。多虧了我們的消化系統，我們不必擔心西瓜籽在我們的胃里發芽。但重要的是要注意我們吃東西的方式，以避免任何不愉快的副作用。
