A taxpayer-funded study set to find out if people can smell their own "
asparagus pee."
Researchers at Harvard on two active studies that received over $3 million
last year surveyed nearly 7,000 people to determine if their urine smelled
funny after eating the vegetable. The results were published in the BMJ
scientific journal, which uses its final edition each year to publish
articles that are "quirky, amusing, and creative—but all scientifically
sound."
The results concluded a "large proportion of individuals of European-
American descent cannot smell ‘asparagus pee'—the unpleasant odor present
in urine after people eat asparagus," according to the T.H. Chan School of
Public Health.
"To learn more about who can smell asparagus pee and who can't, Harvard Chan
researchers surveyed 6,909 men and women of European-American descent
participating in two long-term studies," the school said. "They found that
58 [percent] of men and 62 [percent] of women were unable to smell the
urinary metabolites produced after asparagus consumption. Those metabolites,
the authors said, create ‘a rather malodorous bouquet.'"
The researchers said they have much to learn about the odor of urine.
不过我觉得大部分生物千老浪费掉的研究经费估计连这个研究都不如把，千老们议议？
