Hydrogenated oils are made from liquid vegetable or seed oils and are created to mimic saturated fats. Saturated fats are those that are solid at room temperature. Hydrogenation, the process of polymerizing liquid fats[oils] by heating and injecting hydrogen gas into them, creates "trans-fats", or solid "plasticated" fats which we now know, (or are told), are worse for us than the saturated fats they were designed to replace. ANY fats that are solid at room temperature are either saturated fats or trans-fats.
yes
Hydrogenated oils
Mono-diglycerides is another name for hydrogenated oils. The mono means they are a combination of various oils mixed, hydrogenated, then diglycerides are then separated out.
Yes, hydrogenated oils are stored in adipose tissue. When consumed, hydrogenated oils are broken down in the body and some of the byproducts can be stored in adipose tissue. Over time, this can contribute to health issues related to high consumption of trans fats.
There are a few main characteristics of hydrogenated oils. They all raise LDL cholesterol and raise HDl cholesterol, they get stored in adipose tissue, and some of their fatty acids become trans fats.
trans fatty acids are produced?
Yes and no. Olive oil does lower risk of athersclerosis by raising the "good" cholesterol levels, so you body can care for and clean itself. But hydrogenated oils are chemically different in their basic structure. Hydrogenated oils have hydrogen molecules fused to the oils by force in massive machinery, and for some reason, this changes what the oil is from its most basic level. Traces of oils in their natural state are generally completely eliminated from the body in 18 days average, whereas it takes the body 56 days on average to process hydrogenated and partially-hydrogenated oils.
Non-hydrogenated means that a product does not contain hydrogenated oils, which are often used in food processing to increase shelf life and improve texture. Non-hydrogenated oils are considered healthier because they do not contain harmful trans fats that can increase the risk of heart disease.
Shortening is typically made from hydrogenated vegetable oils, such as soybean, cottonseed, or palm oil. The hydrogenation process gives shortening a solid texture at room temperature, making it useful for baking and cooking.

Oils doesn't contain gluten.
Yes. This is where we get hydrogenated oils from. A process used to make plastic.
