Trans fatty acids

[Guest guest]

I ran across a link on transfatty acids found in margarines, etc. and since

there was such debate on this list I thought some of you might find the

research interesting. It is http://www.dldewey.com/columns/relinksf.htm

Thanks, . More fodder to prove one should stay away from margarine!

Just got this off one of my sources - They also neglected to put in this, however, that they are a large part of margarine! USE BUTTER, NEVER MARGARINE!

And the number of things with partially hydrogenated vegetable oil in them are extensive - really frightening.

"TRANS-FATS"7/11/02

The FDA is moving to get a new item - trans-fatty acids - listed on nutrition labels as soon as next spring. That after a report from the national academy of sciences confirmed that just like saturated fats, trans-fats can increase cholesterol levels, and set the stage for heart disease. Trans-fats are found in processed foods like cookies and crackers. You'll see them listed on ingredients labels as "partially hydrogenated vegetable oil."
