Trans Fats
|
The good news is that food with trans fats are disappearing from the shelves and replaced with non-trans fat foods. The not so good news is that you still have to be wary. Food manufacturers don’t have to list trans fat in the nutrition label if there is less than 0.5 g PER SERVING. They can even “no trans fats” on the label. But depending on the serving size you may eat several servings at one sitting. Make a habit of scanning the ingredients as well as the nutrition label. If you see hydrogenated in the label then it contains trans fats. Those that are truly trans fat free will include in their ingredients healthy fats like liquid canola oil and olive oils.
