What are trans fats and how are they helpful or not?
Trans-fats are fats that are formed when oils go through a process called "hydrogenation" to increase their shelf-life. From a food manufacturer's perspective, this is great- it allows you to keep oils from going rancid for much longer times. For you, it's not so great- trans fats negatively affect cholesterol levels and appear to greatly increase the risk of heart attack. One Harvard study found that individuals consuming 4 grams of trans-fat a day were twice as likely to suffer a heart attack as compared to non-trans-fat consuming peers. Eliminating trans-fats is simple- just read the nutrition labels. Under ingredients, avoid any oil listed as hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated. "Hydrogenated sunflower oil" "Partially hydrogenated coconut oil" and so on all contain trans fats and should be avoided. Manufacturers are allowed to list a product with .5 grams of trans-fat as 0 grams, so remember that just because a product listed "0 grams of trans fat" doesn't actually mean the product is trans-fat free. Read the ingredients to know for certain!
