How Mud Boosts Your Immune System
玩泥巴如何改善身体免疫系统
Children love getting dirty. They are drawn to puddles like muddy magnets, with no regard for footwear or the colour of their clothing. But getting mucky could have a powerful effect on their wellbeing, too.
孩子们总是喜欢把自己弄脏。泥水坑就像一块块沾着泥巴的磁铁一样，吸引着孩子们踩进去，他们毫不在意自己穿的鞋子或衣服的颜色。不过，变得脏兮兮的，其实会对孩子的身体健康带来非常积极的影响。
"Don't get dirty!" was once a constant family refrain, as parents despairingly watched their children spoil their best clothes. Whether they were running through farmers' fields, climbing trees or catching tadpoles, it was inevitable that children's whites would turn brown before the day was over.
“别弄脏了！”曾是一句家长挂在嘴边的话，因为家长们经常绝望地看到，孩子们又把他们最好的衣服弄脏了。无论孩子们是在农田里奔跑、爬树还是抓小蝌蚪，这一天还没结束，他们的白衣服无一例外，总是会变得很脏。
According to recent research, the dirt outside is teeming with friendly microorganisms that can train the immune system and build resilience to a range of illnesses, including allergies, asthma and even depression and anxiety.
而最近研究显示，户外尘土中有很多有益的微生物，能改善我们的免疫系统，让我们建立对过敏、哮喘甚至是抑郁和焦虑等多种疾病的免疫力。
Many of the psychological benefits of outdoor play are already well established. Our brains evolved in natural landscapes. Outdoor play can offer valuable learning experiences. For example, the act of moulding and kneading materials like mud or sand can help children develop the way their senses and movement interact.
户外活动对于心理健康的许多益处早已获得证实。我们的大脑是在自然环境中进化的，而户外活动能为此带来许多宝贵的学习经验。比如，像堆砌、揉捏泥沙等材料的行为，有助于提升孩子们感官与动作之间的相互作用。
People who grow up on farms are generally less likely to develop asthma, allergies, or auto-immune disorders like Crohn's disease – thanks, apparently, to their childhood exposure to a more diverse range of organisms in the rural environment that had encouraged more effective regulation of the immune system.
通常，在农场上长大的人，患有哮喘、过敏或像克罗恩病一样的自体免疫性疾病的几率较小。很显然，这要得益于他们童年时生活在乡村环境中，接触到更多样化的生物体种类，有助于更有效地调节免疫系统。
