Trans Fats Fall 2013

Test your knowledge 1. Margarine is healthier than butter 2. If a nutrition label says “0 grams trans fat” than it has no trans fat 3. Cutting out trans fats will make you lose weight

What are Trans Fats A very small amount of the trans fats people eat does come from natural sources, mainly meat and animal products. A chemical process called hydrogenation produces the vast majority of trans fats in people’s diets.

What are they? Hydrogenation turns liquid vegetable oil into a more solid type of fat.

Where do you find it? In some of your favorite foods, from French fries to breakfast cereal.

Why is it used? Restaurants and manufacturers use trans fats in their food to add taste and texture. Trans fats make fries crispy and delicious, give pies their flaky crust, and give doughnuts their rich, gooey feel. Long shelf life = bigger profits

Your health Studies came out linking saturated fat to high cholesterol and heart disease. People abandoned butter in favor of what they thought was healthier, vegetable-based margarine

Your health Trans fats raise levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. Not only do they raise bad LDL cholesterol, but they also lower the “good” high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.

Your health They also raise levels of triglycerides, a form of fat in the blood, and they increase the amount of lipoprotein (a), a substance made up of protein and fat that transports cholesterol in the blood.

Diseases linked to diets high in trans fat Heart disease Cancer Diabetes Asthma Obesity
